User groups in SpyderFlow are designed as peer groups rather than hierarchical groups.
- This means that each user group grants access to a specific set of assets, and these groups are distinct in what they provide access to.
- User groups work by combining the access provided by each group. Essentially, when a user has several user groups assigned to them, the access from all those groups is combined, allowing them to see the assets available across all the assigned groups.
- When RLS is enabled, each user must be assigned to one or more groups, which determine the data and functions they can access. If a user is part of a geographical user group, they will see all records linked to that location. However, if the “include directly assigned only” option is selected, the user will only see records explicitly assigned to them, even if they are part of a larger user group.
Check with your Manager or SpyderFlow Administrator: that you have the required access and authority level to assign employees to user groups.
User Group to Employee or Employee to User Group can then be planned, selected and completed.
Assign Employee – Add Group
- Employee –> Security –> +ADD then add required groups

Account Admin – User group – Add Members
- Account Admin –> User Groups –> Group Members –> +ADD then add required employees to selected groups
Note! Tick the checkbox if option ‘Include Directly Assigned Only?‘ is required.
