Groups

This section displays a table of the organization's member groups and a button to create new groups. When the organization has many members, grouping them based on different criteria simplifies, for example, granting permissions on resources.

A group cannot own resources (data sources or projects); only members of the organization can.

The table displays the name and number of members in each group.

The menu displayed in the header of each attribute in the table allows you to sort groups, filter them, and hide or show attributes.

The menu displayed when you hover over a group allows you to edit or delete the group.
