Groups are collections of devices in your organization that are managed by specified Account users. Groups are arranged based on logical criteria. Most often, they are used to organize devices by work sites, projects, or teams.

You can use groups as filters in Blackline Analytics reports to see trends within different parts of the organization. For example, you can filter groups to see whether one group is experiencing an exceptional number of alerts or is consistently out of gas compliance.

Groups are also used to determine accessibility within an organization. For example, if the manager of Group one only sees device data for their team, giving them access to that group filters and streamlines their experience in Blackline Live. They cannot see or manage Group two, even though those devices are also part of the larger organization.
