Network admins can configure office locations and manage location-based groups for all users in the domain.
The Locations tab displays all office locations added to your domain. Admins can:
View the location photo and location name.
Click the Manage Settings (cog wheel) to show/hide fields in the list.
Use the Quick Find search bar to locate office locations quickly.
The location photo and the name of the location must be displayed.
Each office location has a 3-dot action menu with additional options.
Edit: Modify office location details such as address, contact information, or group associations.
Delete: Remove an office location from the domain. When deleting, choose to leave the associated group as is or archive the group.
Associate Location Group: Convert a general group into a location-based group. Only members with the matching office location remain in the group. Members outside this location are removed from the group.
Disassociate Location Group: Converts the location-based group back into a general group. Admins must manually manage members. The disassociated group follows private group permissions.
Re-sync Location Detail: Refresh office location details using API or Webhook.
To create a location-based group, click the Create Groups button to open the Create Location-Based Groups pop-up menu.
Locations without a group already associated will display text fields and a creation toggle switch.
