Aha user management (groups, "mail to" communications, etc)

I would like to manage a large group of users (mostly commenters and reviewers) with some additional user management tools including:

1 - user groups - the ability to create groups of users and then assign product permission, workflow board visibility, etc., at the group level instead of over and over for every user

 

2 - ability to "mail to" any user or user group to initiate a tracked conversation (like a comment thread) so I can tell groups of users about new or changed content in Aha, or with announcement-type information

    I am supporting another large organization that has a wish to go big on business activity style product lines to manage and track the daily activitites of regular staff, with workflow/kanban boards like you might see in ADO or Jira. This notion would pull 100s or 1000s of users into the system. I need AD groups to manage that. Similar challenge, but smaller numbers as the many solution trains pull po and sm and team member roles into contributor roles, I need AD groups rather than person by person administration in Aha.

    How is this still not been implemented ? 5 years since this was logged. For me the lack of automation tools for large organisations is going to end up with us moving away and just making do with MS solution. poor

    Ability to non manually assigning a user as an Owner to Workspace A and a Contributor to Workspace B, you would just assign the user that custom role which automatically sets those permissions.

    We have about 200 users. If you must make them collaborators for every report or presentation (as it is right now), that's just too much work!

    This is crucial in a bigger organization, where the admin rights can't be widely delegadted.

    many different scenarios where we would make use of this including:

    1. setting watchers on an item

    2. mentions in comments

    3. todo items

    4. owner assignments

    I had initially thought that this would make sense if the Paid Seat Group function was extended to allow them to be mentioned/selected- but that will not really work- would artificially force me to create groups with one license pool into smaller groups.....

    As an admin of more that 650 users in Aha, this feature - to be able to group users and manage them via groups is mandatory to improve our work. Is there any plan for implementation the groups management?

    This would be very useful for the "Manage Collaborators" function in Notebooks

    Would love to have the group/role management capability- especially as development teams come & go for different projects.

    Current capability in JIRA: Ability to have user groups & assign groups as watchers | Very important functionality for our team | Is there an ETA since the last update was in 2015?

    two years and counting..... If you want Aha accounts to be used by dozens or even hundreds of users, please provide better user management tools than just an alphabetical list. As a tool admin, it's frustrating.

    This would also be very useful in Kanban board > we assign features to group of developers

Group management and Account filter

Merged
It would be useful to have users nested into groups as well as the ability to quickly filter on who has a paid account vs. non paid account rather than listing all product lines and product they belong too, makes the admin page too long.

When we were all using another tool, that tool allowed us to define groups for our users. We were then able to search on those groups. So if user X, Y, Z were in Development and user A,B,C were in Creative, I would be able to create a view that sa...

Create user group

Merged
Currently each individual user is treated individually. If you can create user groups, and assign that group to the role of say watcher. Now when anyone in that group can make the needed change and it will be as if the group made that change.

Allow users to @ a group

Merged
Currently, we can @ individual users. But it would be great to set up groups and be able to @ a list of multiple users.
