This article discusses how to assign group leaders to a GroupShare group. There are two ways to manage Group Leaders, through the Position Manager or Access Groups. This article will show how to assign group leaders through the Access Group Manager. Only groups created through the Access Group Manager will have the option for the configuration.

You will need Access Group Administrator or Administrator access.


Where to go:
