Everything is Better Together: CartoDB introduces Group Functionality

Sharing insights with your peers and colleagues just got easier. CartoDB now permits organization administrators to set up user groups to share data-driven visualizations and datasets with our permissions management system.

Instead of granting individual permission to a dataset or visualization for collaboration, users can now allow an entire group to team up and contribute to larger projects.

How it works:

• All users belonging to a particular group (invited by a group administrator) will have access to datasets and visualizations.
• Permissions (datasets and visualizations) that are currently assigned to a single user or a full organization can also be assigned to groups.
• Group administrators can add individuals to a group in the future.
• Simply set group permissions through the UI or with CartoDB PostgreSQL extension in group management functions.

Happy data mapping!
