Creating a new group

You can create a group at the top level of the groups hierarchy, or as a subgroup of an existing group. A subgroup inherits all the settings of its parent group or groups. (To import and export groups, use the Administrator Manager in Spotfire Analyst.)

Procedure

  1. Log in to Spotfire Server and click Users & Groups.
  2. Under Select a category, select Groups.
  3. At the top of the pane, click Create new group.
  4. In the Create group dialog, enter a name for the group.
  5. Do one of the following:
    • To create a group at the top level, click Save.
    • To create a subgroup, select the Add new group to existing groups check box, select the check box for the group or groups to which you want to add the new group, and then click Save.

Result

The new group is displayed in the Groups list. When you highlight the group, any groups to which it belongs are displayed under Parent groups in the right pane.

What to do next

Assign licenses to the group.

Licenses and preferences are set in the Administration Manager in Spotfire Analyst.
