The Groups feature in Cadence allows you to establish default groups that will automatically appear in all newly created events in your account. From the Groups Menu › Settings section, you can configure which groups should be included by default, ensuring consistent organization across your events while reducing setup time for event administrators.
When to use
When standardizing group structures across multiple events
When implementing role-based access control for your organization
When creating templates for different event types
When streamlining the event creation process
You must have System Administrator permissions to configure default groups at the account level.
How to do it
Log in to your Cadence Admin account.
Navigate to your account management dashboard.
Select "Account Settings" from the left sidebar navigation.
Click on "Menu" in the submenu.
Select "Event Menu (Default)" to access default menu settings.
This area controls what menu items and groups will automatically appear in all newly created events.
Locate the "Groups" section of the default menu configuration.
Click the "+" button to add groups to the default configuration.
Only groups that exist at the account level can be added as defaults for new events.
Search for the groups you want to include by name.
Select the checkbox next to each group you want to add.
Click "Add Selected" to include the chosen groups.
Review your selected groups in the default menu list.
Configure the "Allow Users to Create Groups" setting based on your organization's needs.
When enabled, this setting allows regular attendees to create their own groups in all new events.
Click "Save" to apply your configuration changes.
Test your setup by creating a new event to verify the groups appear automatically.
Troubleshooting
If your default groups are not appearing in new events:
Verify you have System Administrator permissions
Confirm the groups exist at the account level, not just in a specific event
Check that you clicked "Save" after selecting your default groups
