createGroups

Adds groups to Access Control using an ANSI or UTF-8 encoded CSV file that was uploaded to the environment.

A Service Administrator uses the uploadFile command to upload files to an environment. The file format is as follows:

Group Name,Description
Example_grp1,My test group
Example_grp2,My other test group

Group names are not case-sensitive. When the command execution finishes, EPM Automate prints information about each failed entry to the console. Review this information to understand why the command execution failed for some entries in the CSV file.
