User Groups

User groups enable administrators to groups users with specific roles and permissions. These groups streamline collaboration by bringing together users with common interests, roles, or responsibilities. Administrators can not only create new groups but also include a mix of both groups and individual users within a single group.

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) with Owner Scope

A user or a user group can own a record. For more information on access control, see Role-Based Access Control.

Note:

To assign a user or user group as the owner of a specific record, you must enable the Is Allow Owner Scope toggle for that object. For more information, see Objects.

  2. Click the App Launcher () icon in the top left corner, then Admin Console > Users.
