Assigning Users to Groups (Sharing)

                                                
                                                          

Once users and groups are created, users can be assigned to groups. 

Admins can create user-specific groups (when RoboForm files need to be assigned to a particular user), or they can create groups based on any of the following: the department users work in, project assignments, or management level. Assigning users to groups is not mandatory, but it provides the basis for a company to assign or share RoboForm Files with users. 

To assign users to groups:

a) Click the checkbox next to the users you wish to add to a group (multiple users can be selected).


 

b) Click the checkbox next to the group you want to add the selected users to (multiple groups can be selected).



c) Click the "Add to Group" button. 



d) Confirm the action. Users will be assigned to the group with the default Storage Type and Usage Permission levels; this can be modified on a per user basis.

 

Once added to the group, users will see the group in their local RoboForm client as shared folder. Admins can view all users belonging to the specific group by double-clicking on the Group "Users" column. A list of all users assigned to the group will show at the bottom of the screen.

After the users are in the group, the admin can click on the "Edit" button next to the user's name and change their default Storage Type and Usage Permission levels in this group.
