User Groups

A User Group (Group) is a collection of LDAP and/or Local users, and LDAP groups.

Groups specify special IO access for users in the group, such as the ability to login or the ability to share reports, analytics, and topology. Groups have roles, as users do. An advantage of using groups is that you can create a Group (consisting of multiple users and LDAP groups), rather than creating each user separately.

Local users and LDAP groups/users are displayed in separate lists, each list has its own search, and the complete list of groups/users is displayed. You can customize the filter string by defining your own wildcards. The filter string minimum for LDAP Groups (default value = 0):
