Step 3: Create a group to manage users

  • Artikkeli

In this article, you'll use Intune to create a group based on an existing user. Groups are used to manage your users and control your employees' access to your company resources. These resources can be part of your company's intranet or can be external resources, such as SharePoint sites, SaaS apps, or web apps.

Note

Use the information provided in this series of topics to try and evaluate Microsoft Intune. When you're ready, follow the complete process to set up Intune. For more information, see Set up Microsoft Intune.

If you don't have an Intune subscription, sign up for a free trial account.

Note

Intune provides pre-created All Users and All Devices groups in the console with built-in optimizations for your convenience.

Prerequisites

Sign in to the Microsoft Intune admin center

Sign in to Microsoft Intune admin center as a Global administrator or an Intune Service administrator. If you've created an Intune Trial subscription, the account you created the subscription with is the Global administrator.

Create a group

You'll create a group that will be used later in this evaluation series. To create a group:

  1. Once you've opened the Microsoft Intune admin center, select Groups > New group.

  2. In the Group type dropdown box, select Security.

  3. In the Group name field, enter the name for the new group (for example, Contoso Testers).

  4. Add a Group description for the group.

  5. Set the Membership type to Assigned.

  6. Under Members, select the link and add one or more members for the group from the list.
