Add a User to a User Group

Overview

User Groups control the data users and system applications a user can access. Assigning a User to a User Group allows the user access to the data connected to the User Group.

If your organization is using Lightweight Direct Access Protocol (LDAP), you must use LDAP to add and remove users from user groups. Any users added or removed from a user group within Resolver will be reverted to a state before the change during the next LDAP sync.


User Account Requirements

Your user account must have Administrator privileges to add a User to a User Group.
