About access groups

Access groups are a convenient way of managing access to folders and documents and sending change notifications to many users. Each user account can belong to one or more access groups in the same workspace. Access group definitions are specific to each workspace. Thus it is possible, for example, to assign a particular user to an administrative access group in one workspace and to a design access group in another workspace. Access groups may also be nested within other access groups to create a hierarchy.

Note    When the optional Kronodoc Active Directory Connector is installed, Active Directory groups may also be used as described in Managing global groups.

Managing access groups is described in the following topics.
