Important!

We do NOT recommend using the User Identifier Parameter when creating Groups, unless you have a very specific reason to do so. This parameter specifies the single User Value you select. Instead, select other general parameters, allowing Group members to be dynamically maintained by the LMS.

9.When all parameters have been added, click Save Button.
ExpandedStep 2 – Auto-Assign a Group to a Path

Once Groups have been created, the group is available for auto-assignment to Learning Paths. This method automatically assigns a Learning Path to users based on Groups as defined in the Group Manager.

2.Search for the Path, hover over the Path card, and then click the Edit record Edit Record icon.

3.Select the Auto Assign tab.
