Add Accounts to Groups

EmpowerID allows you to easily add one or more accounts to a group. If the group has any entitlements or access assigned to it, that access is given to each added account. For example, if you have a group with a policy that specifies that members of that group have a home folder, each account added to the group will be given a home folder.

Add an account to a group

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

  2. Search for the group to which you want to add user accounts and then click the Logon Name link for the group.



    This directs your browser to the View One page for the group. View One pages for groups allow to view and manage the groups to which they correspond.

     

  3. On the View One page for the group, expand the Group Members accordion.

  4. Enter the user account in the first search field and then click the tile for that account.

     

  5. Repeat step 4 for each user account you want to add to the group as a member.

  6. When ready, click Submit to commit your changes.

Before submitting your changes, you can remove one or more user accounts from the cart by clicking the Added icon and then clicking the Remove button beside the accounts you want to remove, as shown in the below image.
