  2. Select New department.

  3. On the New department window, complete the following:

    • In the Name field, enter a name to identify the department.
    • (Optional) In the Description field, enter a description for the department.
  4. Select Create.

  5. On the Departments page, select the newly created list item.

  6. On the list details page, select Add users.

  7. On the Add users or groups window, complete the following:

    • Select Users to add users from your IdP.
    • Select Groups to add groups from your IdP.
  8. Select Add.

The department is available to be selected in the Departments filter on dashboards and logs.
