Add groups

You can create groups in AVEVA Connect. For example, Administration, Admin_User, Analytics_User, and so on.

After you create a group, you can add users to these groups. For example, if you have created groups "Admin_User" or "Analytics_User," you can add users to these groups.

You can also assign roles to these groups. For example, you can assign the "Analytics User" role to the "Analytics_User" group and the "Administrator" role to the "Admin_User" group.

When you add a user to groups associated with "Administrator" or "Analytics User" roles, the user gets added to the BI Gateway Azure Active Directory.

Note:
- You must have "Datastore - Administrator" privileges for the AVEVA Connect account to add groups.
- While creating a new group, ensure that the group name is meaningful, is less than 31 characters, and does not contain special characters or space. The supported characters are uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and underscore.
- If you want to rename a group, remove the BI Gateway roles, rename the group, and then reassign the roles to this group.

For more information about users and roles, see Add users and Assign roles, respectively.

For more information about creating users, creating groups, and assigning roles in AVEVA Connect, refer to the Create Users, Create Groups, and Assign Roles sections of the AVEVA Connect documentation.
