# Groups

Groups are an alternative way to organize users, that can be used in example for cross-node grouping or temporary grouping to simplify some operation.

The groups feature can be managed from:

<span style="background-color: rgb(206, 212, 217);">*Admin &gt; Users &gt; Groups Management*</span>

## Create Groups

Use the “new” button to create new groups

Clicking on the icon in users column, you can:

1. **Select** and add users to the group
2. **Import** a list of existing users as a CSV file containing the usernames (users must already exist)
