Aqua Cloud Group Overview
By default, every account has a "Default" group which all users and connected accounts are part of (and cannot be removed). Team, Advanced and Enterprise plan users have the ability to create additional groups, usually done based on business units or teams using the same Aqua account. Within each group, there are group admins and group members. Group members are essentially read-only, while group admins have the ability to add or remove connected accounts and related scans for the group, and edit its users. Account admins (essentially "super admins") have access to all groups and settings within the account. To add a new group and then edit its users and permissions:
Create a Group
Step 1: Navigate to the Users & Groups page.
Step 2: Select Create New > Group.

Step 3: Add a group name then select Add Group.
Add Users to Groups
Step 1: Navigate to the Users & Groups page.
Step 2: Select the Groups tab.
Step 3: Select the ... next to the group then Edit Group.
Step 4: Select the users you wish to add to the Group
