Manage Your Organization’s Groups

In VB Studio, you can create groups of your VB Studio organization’s users or import existing Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) groups, and then add these groups to VB Studio projects. When you add a group to a project, you assign a common membership type to all group’s users.

After creating a group, you can add more members to it and add the group to projects. You can also import IDCS groups to VB Studio, but can’t add or remove users from the imported IDCS group. To do that, sign in to the IDCS Console. Note that the imported IDCS group is synced with IDCS every five minutes.

This table describes the actions you can perform to create and manage groups.
