Add People to Groups

EmpowerID allows you to manually add people to groups as needed. When you do so, the user account associated with the person is added to the group. There are several ways to add people to groups:

  • You can add a person to a group from that person’s View page

  • You can add a person to a group using the related action link on the Find Person page

  • You can add people to groups from the group’s View One page

To add a person to a group in an external account store, such as Azure, the person must have an account in that account store.

Add using the Person View page

  1. On any page of the EmpowerID Web interface, enter the name of the person you want to add to a group in the Global Search field located at the top of the page and click the card for that person.

     

  2. On the person’s View page, expand the Group Membership accordion.

     

  3. Enter the name of the group to which you want to add the person in the left search field and then click the card for that group.

     

  4. Click Submit.


    You should see a successful execution summary message.


Add using the Find Person page

  1. On the navbar, expand Identity Administration and select People.

    This directs you to the Find Person page.

     

  2. Search for the person you want to add to a group.

  3. Click the record for that person to select it and then click Add Person to Groups in the Actions pane.

     

  4. Click the account record and then click Submit. If the person has a user account in more than one account store, click the record for the account belonging to the same account store as the group.

     

  5. Select the group(s) you want to add the person to and click Submit.

     

  6. Click Submit to close the operation execution summary.
