# Groups

The Groups page is equivalent to [Microsoft 365 admin center > Active teams and groups](https://admin.microsoft.com/#/groups). It offers an overview of all groups within the organization and allows users to manage group details and memberships.

## Action Buttons

<details>

<summary>Show/Hide Members </summary>

This will toggle if the page displays a column to show the membership of the group. You may need to select the column to show from the table's column selector also.

</details>

{% content-ref url="/pages/2YzVatfRdJvMLBoOArDd" %}
[Add Group](/user-documentation/identity/administration/groups/add.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

{% content-ref url="/pages/zeS3ZVn7WiEZbC3TNVrj" %}
[Deploy Group Templates](/user-documentation/identity/administration/group-templates/deploy.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

## Column Details

The properties returned are for the Graph resource type `group`. For more information on the properties please see the [Graph documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/group?view=graph-rest-1.0#properties).

## **Table Actions**

<table><thead><tr><th width="294">Action/Information</th><th>Description</th><th data-type="checkbox"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Edit Group</td><td>Allows navigation to the <a data-mention href="/pages/ohUXxLKZmJg2kEuCBOKE">/pages/ohUXxLKZmJg2kEuCBOKE</a> page.</td><td>false</td></tr><tr><td>Set Global Address List Visibility</td><td>Controls the visibility of the group in the Global Address List.</td><td>true</td></tr><tr><td>Only allow messages from people inside the organization</td><td>Restricts the group to only receive messages from people inside the organization.</td><td>true</td></tr><tr><td>Allow messages from people inside and outside the organization</td><td>Allows the group to receive messages from both inside and outside the organization.</td><td>true</td></tr><tr><td>Create template based on group</td><td>Will create a group template from this group's settings</td><td>true</td></tr><tr><td>Delete Group</td><td>Deletes the group using the <code>ExecGroupsDelete</code> endpoint listed below.</td><td>true</td></tr><tr><td>More Info</td><td>Opens the Extended Info flyout</td><td>false</td></tr></tbody></table>

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cipp.app/user-documentation/identity/administration/groups.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
