Discover Groups in the Infomaniak Manager
Update 09/28/2026
This guide introduces Groups, the user management system for your Organization, available on the Infomaniak Manager.
Introduction
- To facilitate access and the addition of a collaborator within the Infomaniak ecosystem, the Groups feature allows you to create teams of users and, with a few clicks, grant them access to the services they need.
- It is entirely possible to:
- associate resources (Mail, kDrive, kChat) from the creation of the Group to automate onboarding,
- adjust individual permission levels: for kDrive, the individual permission takes precedence over the Group's permission, while for Mail, the permissions are cumulative.
- add the same user to multiple Groups,
- invite external users to your Organization to one of your Groups,
- add one or more users to a Group at a time,
- define a team leader to easily identify a project manager or the person to contact.
Manage Your Groups
Managing Groups now allows for complete centralization. There is no longer any need to intervene in each tool separately: everything is managed from the Infomaniak Manager for seamless reorganization of your collaborators. See the guides on this topic:
Examples
- You create a Group for a new department: immediately associate it with its dedicated mailboxes, its kDrive organization folders, and its dedicated kChat discussion channels; each new team member added to the team will automatically receive all these access rights.
- You are a Web agency and you want to give your webmaster teams access to all of your Web hosting: simply create a new group, select all the hosting accounts they need access to, and invite them to join the Group.
- You have a kDrive: grant access to a folder to a Group and adjust access based on the users added or removed from the team over time.
- You use Streaming or Ticketing services and want to give your teams access: create a new Group that will have access to both products, or two separate Groups that will have access to the two products completely independently.
