## What are Groups?
|
||||
|
||||
Groups relate together individual users, and provide a scalable way to assign permissions, including access to [Collections]({{site.baseurl}}/about-collections) and other [access controls]({{site.baseurl}}/user-types-access-control/#access-control). When [onboarding new users]({{site.baseurl}}/managing-users/), add them to a Group to have them automatically inherit that Group's configured permissions.

### Using Groups
|
||||
|
||||
Teams and Enterprise Organizations can designate access to [Collections]({{site.baseurl}}/about-collections/) based on user Groups, rather than individual users. Group-Collection associations provide a deep level of access control and scalability to sharing resources. One common Group-Collection methodology is to create **Groups by Department** and **Collections by Function**, for example:
