User Groups

On this page, you can manage User Groups and their Roles in your account.

Each User Group has a unique name in the Infinity Portal account.

Note - Only administrators with User Admin permission get access to the User Groups tab and give roles to a user group.

When you add users to a specific User Group, the assigned User Group shows in the column of the users table. The User Groups are cumulative, which means that the user can belong to different User Groups and receive different Roles.
