Create groups and assign members
Automatically translated
With groups, you can manage access in your DeepCloud organisation in a clear and consistent way. Instead of granting permissions to each person individually for boxes or seal certificates, you bundle users into logically named groups (e.g. “Accounting”, “HR”, “Project X”) and assign permissions to these groups only. This ensures that access rights remain consistent, even when employees change departments, join the company, or leave the organisation.
Create a new group
To create a new group:
- In the account management, open the “Groups” section.
- Click on “Add group”.
3. Define an appropriate group name.
4. Add the desired members to the group.
5. Optional: Add a description so that the purpose of the group is clear.
6. Optional: Assign one or more people as group administrators who can manage the members of the group.
Tip
Use DeepCloud groups to efficiently manage permissions in DeepBox and DeepSign:
- DeepBox: Permissions for boxes and folders.
- DeepSign: Permissions for seal certificates.
In combination with SSO, DeepBox groups can be linked to AD groups via SSO group mapping. This allows permissions to be controlled automatically via your central directory.
