User Groups

Create user groups and add relevant team members so that you can notify everyone at once by mentioning the group. Also, you can set default channels for group members and add multiple users to channels via groups.

Take a look at a short video, or read the instructions below to learn how to use and configure user groups.

Users groups are an extra feature available with our Business and Enterprise plans. Only workspace owner/admins can create and edit user groups.

To show deactivated accounts:

2. Choose the Members tab

Accounts of deactivated users will be displayed in your Members tab.
