Access Group

The valid operations that can be performed on an access group are:

Operation	Description	Access Level
view	View the Access Group
create	Create a new Access Group
add user	Add a user to Access Group
remove user	Remove a user from the Access Group
add project	Add a project to the Access Group
remove project	Remove a project from the Access Group
delete	Delete the Access Group

Group Types

There are four types of access groups:

Type	Created by	Members	Can be changed by users
Custom	A user, in the web interface	Added and removed by the group's editors	Yes
Primary	Kleinkram, one for every user	Only that user; used to give a single user access	No
Affiliation	Kleinkram, per email domain	Every user whose email address is on that domain	No
Public	Kleinkram, once	Every user, implicitly; granting it access makes a project public	No; can only be granted

See Base Concepts for how affiliation groups, primary groups and public projects work.

Membership Expiry

When you add a user to a custom access group, you can let the membership expire: after one week, one month, six months, one year, or on a date you choose. The default is Never. The group's member list shows each membership as Active or Expired.

Access to projects through the group ends when the membership expires. Kleinkram removes expired memberships from the group every four hours; until then, access to missions granted to the group still applies.
