Groups

An Administrator can create groups on the LOBSTA environment. One can understand groups as a category or tag for users. Groups are essential on managing users in projects, as it allows admin to assign different Roles and Permissions in bulk.

Groups

Group list:

  • Group: The name of the group.
  • Users: Number of users in that group.

You can also delete to permanently remove that group and its components. Deleting a group does not the delete the users involved.

Global groups​

By default, LOBSTA has two groups that are applied to every user: non-member users and anonymous users.

Any user viewing the LOBSTA application that is not signed in or does not hold a LOBSTA account.
Anonymous and Non-member

These two groups cannot be edited or deleted, and are used system-wide by LOBSTA

New groups​

Click on New Group to create a group. It only asks for the Name of the group.

New Groups

Once created, clicking on the group name will take you to the group features:

  • General: Group name which can be edited.
  • Users: Displays the current users belonging to that group. New user will prompt a list to which you can select users to become part of the group.
  • Projects: Displays the projects this group is in. Add projects leads to the same prompt as seen in project´s members, making a group members of the specified project.
