Groups

This page helps you create groups. When you share Items in Drive, you can then share with the whole group at once, without picking people one by one.

Who can do whatCopy Anchor Link

• Everyone can open the Groups page and sees the groups they belong to.
• To create, edit and delete groups, you need the Can create group permission from your administrator. It is set in Roles in Configuration.
• In each group, only the Owner and the Organizer can edit the name, members and roles. Everyone else can only look.

If it says "Forbidden" when you click Save, you do not have the permission to create groups yet. Contact your administrator.
