Overview of Information

💡

AD Groups can not be created via XEOX, you can only access information about an AD group and filter accordingly if you require it.

In Reporting - AD Group Report you can only find an overview of all AD Groups you created in your Organisation, but if need more information regarding a group you created, you can find it under Reporting - AD Export Report. Simply click on the directory your group is saved in and then click on the group.
