Introduction
Groups let you organize communication around teams, projects, locations, or topics – instead of scattering it across emails, chats, and noticeboards that aren't connected to one another. Each group is a separate space with its own discussion, events, files, and gallery, accessible only to the people who should have access to it.
This means an employee sees only the content relevant to their team or project, while the person managing the group has control over who has access to it and who can publish content in it – without involving the platform administrator for every change.
Groups overview
The groups list shows all the spaces available on the platform in a single view, split into tabs: All, Invitations, and Mine. The search function lets you quickly find a specific group, and each group card shows its name, a short description, the number of members, and its privacy status – so you can tell at a glance whether a group is public, requires a request to join, or is invitation-only.
Group view
Once inside a specific group, the employee lands in its communication hub. The top section shows the group's name, its description, its creator, and a list of members, along with the option to join, invite others, or leave the group.
The group space itself is divided into four tabs:
- Discussion – a place for posts, comments, and ongoing exchange of information among group members, along with a preview of scheduled content and reach analytics for each post.
- Events – events linked directly to a given group, visible only to its members.
- Files – documents shared within the group, accessible without searching through the discussion history.
- Gallery – photos and visual materials related to the team's or project's activities.
This structure means a group isn't just a noticeboard, but a complete workspace for the team – separating ongoing discussion from materials with a longer shelf life.
Creating a group
A new group is set up through a creator, where in a few steps you define its basic parameters: name, short description, group image, and the person or role on whose behalf the group is being created.
A key element of the creator is setting the privacy level:
- Public – visible to all employees; anyone can join on their own.
- Private – visible on the groups list, but joining requires sending and having a request accepted.
- Secret – not visible on the groups list; joining is possible only by invitation.
Additionally, there's a content approval option – once enabled, every post or article written by a group member first goes to approval before being published. This works well for groups with a wider audience, where the person managing the group wants to retain control over published content without having to moderate it after the fact.
