Create a group.
A group is a set of members organized by project or task, independent of their affiliated teams. Groups are divided into '(internal) Group' and 'External group' depending on its members.
- Internal Group: A group made up only of our company's employees
- External group: A group composed of employees from multiple companies, including your own
People who are in the group are called members. A group consists of members and the Group Master that manages these members.
You can create up to 100,000 groups for paid plans and 1,000 for the free plan, including both internal and external groups.
