# Groups

> Organize team members into groups to control which agents they can access.

## Overview

Groups let you organize your team members into logical segments — for example by department, function, or project — and then use those segments to control access to specific agents.

Go to **Settings → Groups** to manage your groups.

## What groups are for

By default, all members of your organization can see and use every active agent. Groups let you narrow that down: you can restrict an agent so that it's only visible to members of a specific group.

This is useful when:

* You have department-specific agents (e.g. a Media Buying agent that should only be visible to media buyers)
* You want to roll out a new agent to a subset of users before making it available to everyone
* Different client teams each need their own view of agents

## Creating a group

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to Settings → Groups">
    Click **New group** in the top right.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter a name">
    Give the group a clear, descriptive name — e.g. "Media Buyers", "Account Managers", "Client: Acme Corp".
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a description (optional)">
    A short description helps other admins understand the group's purpose. Maximum 500 characters.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save the group">
    Click **Save**. The group now appears in your group list and can be assigned members and linked to agents.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Adding members to a group

After creating a group, assign members to it from the **Members** page. Each member's group badges are shown in their row in the member table.

One member can belong to multiple groups simultaneously.

## Connecting a group to an agent

Once a group exists, you can restrict agent visibility to that group in the agent's **Data Access** settings:

1. Go to the agent's settings → **Data Access** tab
2. Under **User group access**, select the group (or groups) that should see this agent
3. Save the agent

Members outside those groups will no longer see the agent in their sidebar.

<Tip>
  If no group is selected on an agent, the agent is visible to all members of your organization.
