Summary

You can create a new group within a sub-folder, as long as you have the required permissions to do so.

Privileges requirements

You need CREATE (or ADMIN) privileges in the folder where you want to create a group.

Procedure

  1. Find the folder in which you want to create your group, either by navigating using the tree view, or by searching for the folder by name. In this example, we will use the Arts folder under the QS University of Bristol > Academic faculties hierarchy.
  2. Click the Folder actions menu and then click Create new group.


  3. Enter the name of your group in the Group name field. The name of the group must be unique within the folder, but does not need to be unique across all of Grouper. Click the Save button.


  4. If the group was created, you will be taken to the group membership page. See Add a member (entity or group) to a group to learn how to add members to your new group.
