Group¶
A group is a collection of users. By joining a group, a user can inherit the role permissions of the group. Authorize users in batches through groups to better manage users and their permissions.
Use cases¶
When a user's permission changes, it only needs to be moved to the corresponding group without affecting other users.
When the permissions of a group change, you only need to modify the role permissions of the group to apply to all users in the group.

Enters Access Control , selects Groups , enters the list of groups, and clicks Create a group on the upper right.
-
Fill in the group information on the Create group page.
-
Click OK , the group is created successfully, and you will return to the group list page. The first line in the list is the newly created group.
Add permissions to a group¶
