What is a Group in miniOrange IDP?

A group is a collection of several users. Groups are used to map an application to a set of users. Groups can be used for the following purposes in miniOrange :

1. To differentiate users based on their roles or departments.
2. To allow access to an application to a specific set of users.
3. To enable 2FA for a specific set of users.

The DEFAULT Group :

The DEFAULT group is automatically created when you complete the configuration for admin. All users under your admin account are part of the DEFAULT group. Each newly created user is assigned to the default group automatically.

A Default group can be used to enable access to an application for all of the users or if you want to enable MFA for all users.
