Manage Groups

This page is used to manage the list of groups who have access to the workspace. Groups can be valuable when you want to include them as members of multiple Status Sheets but allow the group to keep changing. For example, you may want to create a group called "HR" which will include all of the members of the Human Resources group in your company. The members change over time so you can keep updating the HR group. By adding the HR group to a Status Sheet, you can allow whomever is currently in the HR department to have access to that Sheet.

You can access this page from Workspace Admin → Groups item on the Sidebar menu.

The top portion of the page allows you to specify which groups to display. You can use the filter to select Active or Inactive groups.
