This guide walks you through using the Assign and Share to a User Group feature that allows you to assign a project to a specific user and automatically share it with a group of users based on shared tags. This feature must be turned on by SiteCapture.
👤 Tagging Users in User Management
Once the feature is enabled:
- Go to the User Management section.
- For each user you want to include in a group: Add one or multiple tags (comma-separated) in the tag field. Example: For a user who should belong to both Arizona and California teams, enter:
AZ1,CA1
- These tags will now be used to group users for assignment purposes.
📂 Assigning Projects to Users with Tags
- Navigate to any Project Page.
- Click the Assign dropdown to view the user list.
- Each user in the dropdown will display their assigned tags next to their name.
Example: Jane Doe (AZ1, CA1)
📋 Share with Tagged Groups
When selecting a user for assignment:
- In the Assign Modal, if the user has one or more tags: A section will appear at the bottom with the prompt: “Share with all users tagged”
- You’ll see one checkbox for each tag the selected user has.
- Check the tags you want to use for sharing the project.
🗑 Remove Previous Users (Optional)
If the project is already shared with other users:
- An additional checkbox will appear:
- “Remove all previous shares”
- Check the box if you want to clear all prior user assignments and only keep the newly tagged group and click "Apply".
✅ Applying the Assignment
- Once you've selected the user, tags, and optional removal:
- Click Apply.
- The following will happen:
- The selected user is assigned to the project.
- The project is shared with all other users who have the checked tags.
- All previous users will be removed from the project if the “Remove all previous users” option was selected.
📝 Example Scenario
Let’s say:
- You assign a project to John who has tags:
AZ1, CA1
. - You check the boxes for
AZ1
andCA1
. - You check the box for Remove all previous users.
After clicking Apply:
- The project is assigned to John.
- The project is also shared with all users who have the
AZ1
orCA1
tag. - Any users previously assigned are removed from the project.
💡 Tips
- Use consistent tag names across users for easy group sharing.
- Avoid redundant tags (e.g.,
AZ1
,az1
,Az1
) — tagging is case-sensitive. - You can update user tags at any time in User Management.
