Add groups and assign roles in CONNECT data services

Add existing CONNECT groups to CONNECT data services and then assign roles to the group. Roles control the individual permissions assigned to users in the group, controlling the actions they can make in CONNECT data services.

To assign an existing CONNECT group to a role in CONNECT data services:

1. Open the CONNECT data services portal.

2. From the left pane, select Security > Groups.

3. Select Add Group.

4. In the Name field, enter the name or first few characters of a CONNECT group name, then press Enter.

5. Assign a role, or multiple roles, to the group to control the actions members can take in the CONNECT data services portal, then select Save.

   AVEVA recommends mapping the CONNECT groups that you created in Add groups in CONNECT to the built-in tenant roles.
