Class

The type of group. The default is Group. The other valid value is Role.

Use this property so that your applications can distinguish between groups and roles. The server does not enforce the value of this property and does not set the property to any value other than group.

If you set this to Role, the group does not appear on the groups list page.

Email Address

The email address for the new group.

If no value is entered in this field, the group email address defaults to the group name.

Owner

The name of a repository user who has the Create Group privilege and who owns this group.

If you are a superuser, you can select the owner. Otherwise, you can set this to a group of which you are a member.

Administrator

Specifies a user or group, in addition to a superuser or the group owner, who can modify the group. If this is null, only a superuser and the group owner can modify the group.

Alias Set

The default alias set for the group.

Group is Global

Displayed only in the governing repository of a federation.

Description

A description of the group.

Private Group

Defines whether the group is private. If Is Private is unchecked, the group is created as a public group.

By default, groups created by users with sysadmin or superuser privileges are public, and groups created by users with a lower user privilege level are private.

Dynamic Group

When this is checked, the group is a dynamic group. A dynamic group is a group of any group class where the membership is considered a list of potential members. Whether a particular user is treated as a member of the group or not is determined by the setting of Treat users as members/Treat users as non-members and the behavior of the application by which the user accesses the repository. For more information about dynamic groups, refer to About dynamic groups.

Treat users as members/Treat users as non-members

This field can be set only if Is Group Dynamic is checked. The members of a dynamic group are considered to be potential group members. At runtime, whether the group members are considered members is determined by how this field is set. If Treat users as members is selected, users are considered members of the dynamic group. The default setting is Treat users as non-members.
