Requirements
To be able to create a new group in the GEANT AAI Service, you need to fulfill at least one of these requirements:
- To be a manager of the GEANT VO → Then you can create any new group (even the top-level one)
- To be a manager of any existing Group in the GEANT VO → Then you can create a sub-group under any Group you are a manager of.
As both of these operations are similar, this guide will focus primarily on creating a new sub-group from the perspective of a Group manager.
Step 1:
Access the GEANT AAI Service and get into your home Dashboard - https://vo.aai.geant.org/home
Find the Group under which you want to create a new sub-group using this guide:
Step 2:
Click on the Subgroups button to open the setting for all sub-groups of this Group.
Step 3:
In the Subgroups setting you can see all current sub-groups this Group already has.
To create a new one, click on the green "Create subgroup..." button.
Step 4:
In the open form you need to fill some basic information:
- Name - mandatory
- Description - optional (but recommended)
Then click on the green button "Create".
Step 5:
Find your newly created sub-group in the list.
Note that you can always find it using the standard guide: How to find an existing Group where I am a manager
