Create a group in your organization

For email & distribution lists, sharing, configuring settings & more

This page is for administrators who manage groups for an organization. To manage groups for an account that ends in gmail.com, go to Google Groups help.

As a Groups administrator, you can create groups for departments, teams, or other sets of users in your organization.

Where can I do this? You can create a group and add members in your Google Admin console or Google Groups. However, only groups created in your Admin console can be used as a configuration group.

You can use groups for collaboration or to set up a feature or service configuration. The best way to create a group is in your Admin console. Here, it can be easier to find group members or add a lot of members at once. If you create a group in Google Groups, it can’t be used to configure features or services.

Create a group in the Admin console or Google Groups so your users can:

• Send email to all group members with a single address
• Invite group members to a meeting
• Share content with members, including documents, sites, videos, and calendars
• Participate in discussions or a Collaborative Inbox in Google Groups (requires turning on Groups for Business)

Group must be created in the Admin console, not using Google Groups.

In addition, you can use a group to:

• Turn a service on for a group
• Configure service settings for a group

For configuration or communication and collaboration groups (includes email lists)

If Groups for Business is turned on, you can later go to Google Groups to set up more features that aren't available in your Admin console.

   account to the Google Admin console.

   If you aren’t using an administrator account, you can’t access the Admin console.

   Enter an email address for the group. If more than one domain is displayed, select the appropriate domain from the list. Follow these guidelines:

   • Email addresses can be up to 63 characters long. This limit doesn't include the domain portion of the address, such as @gmail.com.
   • Some words are reserved and can't be used as email addresses. View reserved words.

   If you're creating your group in a work or school account, your email address might include a suffix, such as -user-created. For example, if your group name is training, the actual email address might be training-user-created@your_domain.

   Description

Only for communication and collaboration groups. Requires turning on Groups for Business To use your group as a configuration group, follow the steps above on this page to instead create it in the Admin console. If you create a group in Google Groups, it can't be used to configure features or services.

Another way to create a communication or collaboration group, such as an email list, is using Google Groups. There, you can also add features such as for moderated discussions or a Collaborative Inbox.

To create a group in Google Groups, follow the steps in steps in the Learning Center to create a group.

• It can take up to 24 hours for a new group to appear in your Groups directory, which all users can access. To hide a group from the directory, you need to allow group owners to hide groups. For more information, see Set organization-wide policies for using groups.
• Wait a few minutes for your new group to become active before sending a message to it. Otherwise, you might get a notification that your message couldn't be delivered.

• Manage membership automatically with dynamic groups
• Create recommended groups for sharing (target audience)
• Sync groups with your LDAP or Active Directory server
• Create and manage groups using APIs

• Add features to a group using Google Groups
• Make a group a Collaborative Inbox
