Article Summary

Group Visibility, a main feature of UniFi Identity Group Management, allows you to make a group public to all workspace users or visible only to authorized users and groups.

  • Public group: All users can view and search for the public group in their UniFi Identity directory.
  • Private group: Only the specified users and groups can view and search for the private group in their UniFi Identity directory.

Benefits

  • Customizable Group Visibility
    Only admins who have permission to edit users and groups can assign users and groups to view and search for public or private groups.

  • Enhanced Directory Privacy
    Groups that are set as private can only be viewed and searched by the specified users and groups. This enhances the privacy of both your UniFi Identity directory and the private groups.
