Adding Groups (LMS Only No Sync)

Groups allow you to easily manage access to your content and manage administration permissions in your GZ LMS portal. With Groups you can:

• Allow a grouping of users to view specific modules in your learning management system (LMS)
• Allow a grouping of administrators to have specific permissions in your portal

In this article, we will explain:

• How to access the Groups page
• How to add a Group
• How to set custom Group Permissions

ACCESS THE GROUPS PAGE

To access the Groups page, click the drop-down menu in the top-left corner of the page and select the Groups link (Fig. 1).

ADD A GROUP

From the Groups page (Fig. 2), click the Add Group button in the top-right corner of the page.

From the Add Group page (Fig. 3), you can enter:

• Group Name: Group names are only visible to administrators
• Custom ID / External ID: A client-provided external ID used to look up this group from the Konvert API
• Permissions: If permissions are needed for this group, you can select the Set Permissions toggle (Fig. 3, bottom)

SET CUSTOM GROUP PERMISSIONS

No Custom Permissions Needed: Leave the Set Permissions toggle unchecked. Users in this group will be able to view basic parts of the portal, such as assigned modules.
