User groups

User groups offer a flexible way to manage permissions in your organization. Most permissions in Zulip can be granted to any combination of roles, groups, and individual users.

Groups provide an easy way to refer to multiple users at once. You can:

• Mention a group of users, notifying everyone in the group as if they were personally mentioned.
• Compose a direct message to a user group. This automatically puts all the users in the group into the addressee field.
• Subscribe a user group to a channel. This individually subscribes all the users in the group.

You can add a group to another user group, making it easy to express your organization's structure in Zulip's permissions system.
