Understanding groups

You can organize your users by creating groups. Utilizing groups offers multiple advantages, including benefits related to:

  • Roles: Groups act as helpful intermediaries for roles, making it easier for you to assign one or more roles to a larger number of users. This allows you to easily and clearly manage the permissions and visibilities for a larger number of users without having to specify individual permissions for each user.
  • Pages and communities: Groups also simplify the process of inviting users to pages and communities. Instead of individually adding every employee, you can invite an entire group to a community or auto-subscribe a group of users to a page. The user needs the "Invite groups" permission to invite groups.
  • Multichannel posts: You can target your communication to certain groups, allowing you to ensure that the correct people receive the correct news.
  • User directories: You can automatically synchronize your groups from your connected user directory. This allows you to use your existing user directory structure and define roles that correspond to a specific group's desired tasks and functions.
