A User Group organizes multiple users together for easier permission management. Workspace admins create groups and add users, then assign these groups to roles within projects.
Bytebase does not support nested groups. A group can only contain users, it can’t contain another group.
Service accounts cannot be part of user groups. Since service accounts are for automated processes with specific access needs, including them in groups could grant unintended permissions. This is considered an anti-pattern.
Within Workspace, go to IAM & Admin > Users & Groups, and Add Group from top-right.Create an Email for this group, it’ll serve as an account and cannot be changed after creation. Fill the group’s name into the Title bar. You can Add member below, where they can be Group member as well as Group owner.Here we’ve created a Contractor Group, you can view or edit it under Groups page.You can see which group a user belongs to under Users page as well.
Now that we’ve created this Contractor Group, we can assign corresponding permissions to these groups within any project.Select Project from top left. Enter Basic Project.Go to Manage > Members where you can see the project’s members and roles. Our Contractor Group is not among them before we Grant Access to the group from top right.Choose Groups and Select our group in Grant Access detail page. Assign role and Confirm.Now you can see the Contractor Group under View by members page as well as View by roles page within Members section of Basic Project.All members within this group now share permission to the project.
