Group Membership
To modify the user’s Group Membership, click the Group Membership tab on the navigation sidebar. Click Add User to User Group to include them in new User Groups, then check the box next to each group to include the user in. It is also possible to search large amounts of User Groups via the search bar in the upper-right corner. Click X to remove users from User Groups.
Individual users do not have permissions on their own, instead they derive permissions based on the group(s) of which they are a member. A user can belong to more than one group, and when permissions overlap, the user will derive their permissions from the group with the highest level of authority to which they belong. View more details on User Group Permissions.
