MangoApps Workplace allows for the creation of Public, Private, and Unlisted groups.

* **Public** - Anyone with access to the network can join this group, participate and view messages.
* **Private** - Users must be invited by a current member or admin, or request access in order to view messages and participate.
* **Unlisted** - This is an unlisted group. Only the creator and the invited users can view it. Unlisted groups will not appear in the All filter. Admins do not automatically have any access to this type of group.

Click **Save & Continue** to move on to the next step.

Now, you have the option to configure the modules available in the group. This options **does not** affect any modules available along the users main left hand navigation menu.
