Manage user groups

Last updated on April 22, 2024

Introduction

User groups allow you to group users and assign them to private channels. You can add, edit, and delete user groups in your namespace on the AccelByte Development Toolkit (ADT) Web.

info

The User groups page was previously available in the AccelByte Development Toolkit (ADT) Hub, but has been moved to ADT Web. The user group menu can still be accessed in the ADT Hub, but you will be redirected to the User group page on the ADT Web on your default browser.

Prerequisite

Only admins can access the user group menu.

Access the user group menu

  1. Log in as an admin to ADT Web or ADT Hub with your credentials.

  2. Click on your namespace on the sidebar. Then, on the menu that appears, click on User Groups. The User groups page appears, displaying a list of the available user groups in your namespace.

    tip

    If you're accessing the user group menu from ADT Hub, ensure that you're already logged in to ADT Web for a seamless redirection.
