How to manage groups

Groups are a collection of identities (user or app).

When managing groups, be aware of the following:

Any identity (user or app) can create groups.
The identity that creates a group becomes the group admin for that group.
Org admins and group admins can manage who has access to the group and can delegate group admin permissions to other identities.
Group admins can only administer those groups for which they have admin permissions.
Org admins can manage all groups, even if they haven’t been explicitly granted group admin permissions.

Manage members (user or app) of a group

You can manage members of a group by adding or removing an identity, and managing group admin permissions.

Manage group admin permissions

Only org and group admins can change identity (user or app) permissions. Org admins can change identity (user or app) permissions on any group. Group admins restrict changing identity (user or app) permissions for only those groups for which they have admin permissions.
