Groups

Creating groups allows you to assign members of your organization to a specific set of channels you’ve created within Anaconda. These channel sets are private and are only visible to organization members who are assigned to the group(s) that contains them.

On this page:

Finding your groups

  1. Log in to Anaconda Cloud.

  2. From your profile in the top-right corner, select Organizations.

    ../../../_images/nucleus-organizations-navigation.png

Creating a group

  2. Enter a unique name for your group and click Save. A notification will appear to inform you that your group was successfully created, and your new group will appear in the Group list.

    Note

    You can create as many groups as you need for your organization.

Assigning users to a group

Assigning users to a group grants them access to view and use the channels it contains.

  2. Select users from the Available users list to add them to the Current users list, then click Save.

Removing users from a group

Removing a user from a group removes that user’s access to the private channels it contains. The user will still have access to your organization’s internal channels.

  1. From the Groups page, open the Actions menu for your group and select Assign Users.

  2. Select users from the Current users list to remove them from the group, then click Save.

    Note

    If you remove all users from a group, the channels it contains will only be visible to users with administrator access.

Assigning channels to a group

Assigning a channel to a group changes the permissions of the channel from internal to private. For more information about channel permissions, see Channels.

  1. From the Groups page, open the Actions menu for your group and select Assign Channels.

    ../../../_images/ab_groups_assign_channels_option.png
  2. Select channels from the Available channels list to add them to the Current channels list, then click Save.

    ../../../_images/ab_groups_assign_channels.png

    Note

    Private channels will only appear on the Channels page for administrators and users who have access to the channel’s group.

Removing channels from a group

  1. From the Groups page, open the Actions menu for your group and select Assign Channels.
  2. Select channels from the Current channels list to remove them from the group, then click Save.

Deleting a group
