Group Tab

The Groups table contains a list of the high-level containers, or group factories, that contain the actual groups used within IdentityIQ. Each group factory is associated with either an identity attribute or an entitlement within an application. These group factories are not groups themselves, but are used to define, maintain, and enable groups.

The Group tab contains the following information:

Column Name

Description

Name

The name assigned to the group factory when it was created.

Attribute

The attribute used to define the groups within the group factory.

Description

Description of the group factory or the groups contained within.

Status

The status of the groups within the group factory, enable (check mark) or disabled (exclamation mark).
This status controls all of the groups contained within this group factory.

Click on a group factory or right-click and select edit to display the Edit Group page. The Edit Group page contains the group factory information from the table and a list of the groups associated with the group factory. For example, for a Manager group factory the table contains a row for every value assigned to the manager attribute in IdentityIQ. See Edit Group Page.

To create a new group, click Create New Group to open the Edit Group page.

To delete a group factory, right-click and select Delete.
