# How to Manage User Groups in a Workspace

## User Groups in SciNote simplify user and permission management within a single workspace. This feature allows workspace Owners to group multiple users together and manage their access to projects, protocols, inventories, & more.

---

For example, if your labs are spread across two different locations but you're using a single workspace, you might consider creating two user groups. This allows you to quickly assign projects to the relevant scientists based on their location.

#### To create and manage a user group:

1. In your settings (gear icon) --\> click **Groups**

1. 1. OR from Settings click on **Workspaces**, click into the workspace name, and go to the **Groups** tab
2. Click **+New Group**.
3. Name your group and add users from the list of current workspace members.
4. Click **Create Group**.

\*Only **Workspace Owners** can create, edit, or delete user groups within the workspace. Review the full SciNote user roles and permissions table [here](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/en/knowledge/how-to-set-up-user-roles-in-scinote?hsLang=en).

You can create **unlimited groups per workspace** and a single user can belong to multiple groups.

Group membership is managed exclusively from this central Groups tab. Membership can't be modified from individual project or object-level access settings.
