What do Groups control?

Groups control user access to all functions and features in Lexer, including:

  1. Access to Products and Features
  2. Access to Customer Profile and Attribute data in your CDP
  3. Enforce multi-factor authentication
  4. Manager permissions for your team
  5. Permission to manage segments, filters, classifications
  6. Permission to integrate accounts
  7. Permission to respond, schedule and approve responses

These permissions work in unison for some tasks, it depends what you're trying to achieve. For example if you want to email a customer via Segment, you might need permissions for: Segment, View PII and Contact Identity.

The permissions you can access may vary from those in the table below.
