Configuring user groups for Ask Me Anything

The Ask Me Anything add-on uses user groups to provide secure access to the add-on features.

To configure user groups for the Ask Me Anything add-on:

Go to the user group configuration page:
- Admin Console > Permissions > User Groups
- Advanced Admin Console > People > Management > Create User Group
Create a permission group whose members should be able to host AMA meetings and add AMA hosts as members of this group. For example, you can name this user group as ask-me-anything-hosts-group.
Save the changes.

Add the preconfigured user group to the Ask Me Anything Add-on configuration to allow users of this group to host AMA meetings.
