Create an Access Group

Create an Access Group

You can create an access group in the following ways:

• Create a custom group

• Create access groups from tickets

Create a new custom group

To create a new custom access group:

1. Go to About Event > Access Groups.

2. Click on Create a new group.

3. On the New Group popup, enter a group name and click +Create.
   
   \

This adds a new group to the list.
Note: Creating a custom group does not add a new ticket tier.
 Note: A custom group name should not be similar to any of the default group names.

Create Access Groups from Tickets

You can create an access group based on the ticket tiers you create for your event. For example, an all-inclusive ticket tier gets access to rooms and networking zones whereas a basic ticket only gets stage access.

When you create a ticket tier, a group with the same name gets created and linked to the ticket tier. The linked access group can be seen in the ticket details and also in the list of access groups. For all the ticket tiers you create, an equal number of access groups are created.

When the ticket tier is changed for an attendee, the derived access group gets updated accordingly for the attendee. You can enrich a ticket by adding custom groups to it, so all attendees with the ticket tier will inherit the permissions.

Note: Role-based access groups cannot be tagged to a ticket group.
