User Groups

User groups restrict access to specified content. For example, you could define a management user group, and designate sensitive content at the article level so that it can be accessed only by members of the management user group.

You can define user groups within Knowledge Advanced to restrict access to specified content to members of the user group.
Note: User groups are primarily intended to restrict user access to content, for example, by defining members only content. However, you can define user groups to restrict access to content within Knowledge Advanced as well.

You implement user groups by performing one or both of the following actions.

  • Defining one or more user groups

  • Specifying one or more user groups within security role and web role definitions.
