Instead of assigning your users to products one-by-one, Autodesk Account allows you to organize users into groups and assign everyone in the group access to the same products. Furthermore, you can create groups that correspond to specialized roles. For example, you could assign AutoCAD and Revit to a group named Architects. Or you could assign Civil 3D and Navisworks Manage to a group for civil engineers.
It’s important to understand that, in Autodesk Account, groups are different than teams. By default, you automatically have one team in your account under which all your users and Autodesk subscriptions fall. You create groups within a team. If you have additional teams, those groups aren’t shared by the other teams, even if the groups have the same users in different teams. To learn more about teams, see Manage teams.
Note: Groups are not supported in Classic user management. Also, you can't add Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) or ShotGrid offerings to groups.
For each of the following procedures, first sign into Autodesk Account at manage.autodesk.com.
Note: When assigning users to a group, you must have enough seats available for the new members.
Assignments are additive, that is, a user can be assigned a product by default, and by one or more groups and will receive the sum of those product assignments. If a user is assigned the same product from multiple sources within a team, only one seat is required.
Note: When assigning products to a group, you must have enough seats available for all the members of the group.
Note: Users assigned to products individually continue to have access. Group management does not affect individual product assignments.
For Premium and Enterprise plans only: If your team is configured for single sign-on (SSO), you can sync groups with users in your organization's directory automatically. To set up SSO and directory sync, see the Single Sign-on Configuration Guide.
To check the status of synced groups:
If your organization’s directory is not synced, ask your primary and SSO admins to set up Directory Sync in team settings. Following initial setup, secondary admins can assign products to synced groups.
