Once you have created the group, press **Create**.

### Edit Groups Attributes

To Edit the attributes of a Group, click the <img src="https://files.readme.io/14641a0-pencil_icon.png" alt="" data-size="line">icon on the right of the screen. The same mask with Group Details entered for the Group will be loaded and you will be able to modify attributes as needed. Click Save to confirm your changes.

On the right of the screen, clicking the three-dot icon, the following options will appear:

|                            |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **UN-ASSIGN FROM ACTOR**   | Selecting this option, the External Group will be unassigned from the Actor. Once the Group is unassigned, the entry will change to ASSIGN TO ACTOR.                                                                                                         |
| **UNBIND FROM REPOSITORY** | Selecting this option, the External Group will no longer have access to external configuration of user permissions such as LDAP or IAM. Once the Group is unbound, it will be removed from the Results list. To bind it again, select the BIND GROUP button. |
| **DELETE**                 | Selecting this option, the External Group will be removed from PRIMEUR Data One.                                                                                                                                                                             |

Binding allows you to grant permissions to an external configuration of user permissions, for example in LDAP or IAM.

To bind a Group, go to **Setup** → **Users & Groups** → **External Groups** → **Bind Group**.\
On the left of the dialog window, select the Group you want to bind. On the right, select the Actor to be assigned to the Group. When you bind a group, a registered user within the group will be bound too.
