Each group in your workspace comes with a unique set of settings so that you can configure group details, assets, content, and permission as needed.

Note: To manage a group's settings, you must be a workspace admin or group owner.


Completing a Group's About Info

The About page in your group houses fields that help your team members learn more about your group. We suggest adding info about how the group is used, how to get in touch with the content owners of the groups, details about work related to the group, and more.

  1. Navigate to the group you'd like to edit.

  2. Click About in the page header.

  3. Use the Edit buttons to complete the Ask us About and Description areas.


Editing a Group's Settings

To configure group ownership, posting permissions, and more, each group has a unique settings menu where you can manage these details.

  1. Navigate to the group you'd like to edit.

  2. In your group's header, click the dropdown arrow and select Settings from the dropdown menu.

  3. Use the General Settings tab to configure the group name, type, and icon.

  4. Use the Permissions Settings tab to determine visibility and permissions.

  5. Use the Members tab to add and remove group owners and members.

  6. Use the Connect to Slack and Connect to Team tabs to connect group notifications to your team's messaging tool.

  7. Click Save at the bottom of the modal to save your changes.


Updating a Group's Cover Image

For group cover images, we suggest using images that are 1128x216px (or double each dimension if your team is using retina screens!) in size so that the image can easily be displayed beautifully on the group page.

  1. Hover your mouse on the cover image space and click on Change Cover in the top right corner.

  2. Select an image from your computer or drag and drop it into the image area.

  3. Click Save.
