Groups are a great social tool to allow conversation and documents to be kept and shared outside of the training process.
There are two different options available to add members to your group. You can either register users or invite them to join.
Navigation
Click on the nine dots in the bottom and head to the Social Workspace.
Select Groups -> All Groups from the navigation menu.
Select the group you want to look at. Private Groups are only available to the group creator and invited members. Public groups can be seen and joined by anyone, as long as they have read permissions for the category the group is in.
Invite or Add Members
Go to the Team Members tab and click on the blue '+'-button. This gives you the option to either Invite Team Members or Register Team Members.
Inviting Team Members gives the members an invitation the the group which they can accept or deny. Registering Team Members will register people directly to the group, making it mandatory to join.
Registering members can only be done by users who are:
1) an Academy Admin
2) a Group Admin with the Create Group or Register Members to Groups (only to Groups he is an Admin of) permission
3) a manager with the Register Members to Groups (All Groups) permission.
The process for inviting and registering members is the same. Select the option you like to get an overview of all members you can add to the group.
Either select the members from the full list, or use the filters to get a list of members by organizational filters.
Inviting a Member: Select your members and click Next. On the next screen, you can write a note or add an attachment. Click on Invite [x] team member(s) to invite them to the group. These members will then get an email saying they got invited and can accept or reject.
Registering Members: Select your members and click Register [x] team member(s) to register them to the group. Members will be immediately added, and will get an email saying they were registered.
