Access groups

Manage and assign permissions to multiple users simultaneously by using access groups in Kyndryl Bridge.
Users with an Administrator role, which is the out-of-the-box role granted when the Kyndryl Bridge account is first created, can manage access groups. Likewise, other users can also manage access groups if they have the required permissions.

Accessing the Access Groups page

  1. Click the Global menu icon.
  2. Click
    Settings
    and select
    Access Management
    . The Access Management page opens.
  3. Select the
    Access Groups
    tab.
Once in the
Access Groups
page, you can perform a series of actions to personalize your access groups' needs, including the following:
  • Viewing a list of access groups
  • Viewing access groups members
  • Adding users to access groups
