# Groups
Groups can be used to logically group Users together either by role in your organisation (e.g. Users part of a marketing team could be assigned to a group “Marketing”) or by access level.
You may optionally assign Users to any number of **Groups**.
{% hint style="info" %}
See [User Rights for Groups](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/users/list-of-user-rights.md) for information on the permissions and user rights that can be set at a group level.
{% endhint %}
#### **All users in a group can inherit the permission aligned to the group they're in**.
This means you can skip having to individually allocate permissions to each user (unless they need a specific configuration), and just add them to a group such as ‘Staff’ that has a baseline level of access.
#### Users can have combined permissions of Groups.
If a user is in multiple Groups, they will inherit the combined permissions of those Groups. Users will lose the Group permissions when they are removed from the Group unless they have the permission granted through another Group or their own[ User Rights.](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/users/list-of-user-rights.md)
#### Effortless allocation of access permissions to digital assets.
Once made, Groups also can be used to quickly add people to Assets/Collections, as you will be able to allocate the group (which selects everyone in the Group) in the permission selector.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://support.hivo.co/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/groups.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
