Group options and settings

The groups user interface allows you to configure group settings. From here you can define who is allowed to access and modify the group, which holiday calendar the group uses, and various options for how xMatters contacts group members.

To access these settings, you must have permission to view groups in the xMatters user interface (such as when you have the Group Supervisor role) and the group must be configured to allow one of your assigned roles to access the group. To modify a group's settings you must be a supervisor of the group.

Group options

The Overview tab allows you to modify group settings, including the group name and description. For on-call groups you can also modify other advanced settings that determine how xMatters notifies on-call group members.

Broadcast group options

You can update the group's details, notification settings,, or copy a group from any tab in the on-call group interface.

On-call group options

You can update the group's details, notification settings, time zone, or add a shift from any tab in the on-call group interface.
