Before you begin

It is important to note that this module is only relevant for site admins and group admins.

Terminology

• Site Admin: A site owner or site collaborator with admin permissions.
• Group Member: A site member belonging to a group.
• Group Admin: A group member that was assigned the 'group admin' role by either the site admin, or another group admin. The creator of a group is automatically a group admin. The group admin has the same permissions as a site admin, but only for the specified group.
