Add user to a group

After clicking Add user to group in the preceding screen, a screen like the one below will be shown.

Enter any set of characters as search criteria. This retrieves the search results based on Username, Name, and Email of users containing the search criteria.

Info

You can now manage users in groups from all external directories (read/write or read-only) through Delegated Group Management. The app performs this action with regard to how Confluence or Jira natively enforces user management. Please note that the delegated group itself needs to be associated with a read/write directory for delegation actions to complete successfully.
