Site Administrator Instructions

Site Administrators are responsible for adding new groups and group spaces to a portal.

There are two steps to perform before group spaces can be used:  creating groups of users, and then creating group spaces and assigning the groups and access roles to the group spaces.

  • Adding Groups – Instructions on creating groups and assigning appropriate users to the groups.
  • Adding Group Spaces & Access Roles – Instructions on creating group spaces, and prescribing roles to selected users and/or groups to give them access to the group spaces.

Once the groups and group spaces are set up, the Site Administrator does not have to maintain the content within the group spaces.  The group members can add and edit the content themselves.

There are several reports available to Site Administrators to help track and review overall portal groups and group space assignments and permissions.
