Admin groups

The Admin Groups page lets you give permissions to a group of staff at once, instead of one person at a time. For example, give your "Teachers" group the Teacher Request Reviewer permission.

Who can use this page: Global Administrator.

The Admin Groups page, listing staff groups synced from Microsoft Entra.

Where admin groups come from​

Admin groups are synced from Microsoft Entra through the Administrators connection on SCIM Configuration. If the list is empty, add the groups to your admin provisioning in Microsoft Entra. Group members are managed in Microsoft Entra.

Give a group permissions​

  1. Find the group using the search box, then select it.
  2. Turn on the permissions everyone in the group should have.
  3. Select Save Permissions.

Everyone in the group gets these permissions, on top of any given to them on the Admin Users page. See Admin permissions.

tip

Using groups is easier to look after than setting permissions person by person. When a new teacher joins the "Teachers" group in Microsoft Entra, they get the right permissions automatically.
