Resource Groups​

Resource groups are used to set parameters on the information that is included within policies. The primary use case of resource groups is to use them to limit policy information based on country or IP when enabling customizable policies.

Role requirements​

To view, edit, delete, and add resource groups, you must be assigned the Admin role.
