Create Query Based Collections

Query Based Collections (SetGroups) are logical groupings of Sets bundled together with a friendly name for resource management, such as "Helpdesk Technicians" or "High Security SharePoint Documents." Membership within a Query-Based Collection is dynamic. Each compilation of the Set Compiler Job adds and removes objects from each Query Based Collection, based on the query results of the Sets.

In the navigation sidebar of the EmpowerID Web interface, expand Role Management and click Query-Based Collections (SetGroup).

3. Click Submit
