Introduction

Standard Groups, simply referred to as "groups", are to be differentiated from workflow (task) groups and link groups. As the other group types, standard groups can be accessed through the Main Menu Bar or in the Group Panel as sub-groups of other groups. Standard groups are mainly used for communication purposes. Users can be added as participants in the group, allowing them to use the group panel's actions button, access sub-groups, open link groups, access the group's channels, and other resources that can be added to a group and its channels.

Through Channel Workspaces within Standard Groups, users associated with a channel can send messages, share files, answer surveys, and view other users participating in the channel.
