How to Create User Groups in the IGEL UMS Web App

You can create user groups for easier user management in the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS) Web App. You can use these groups to grant permissions or map Identity Provider (IdP) roles to a set of users.

In the UMS Console, you can do the same under Administrator Accounts in the IGEL UMS.

Permission Requirement

You need to have the Administrator accounts permission to manage user groups.


To create user groups:

  1. Go to User Management > Groups.
