# Users and Groups Google Workspace allows adding both individual users and groups of users. Every user is an individual with their own personal drive. By default, users have no access permissions unless granted during user creation. ### Groups Groups are Users that have a shared set of permissions. This is useful to quickly give Users access to specific files and drives, as well as permissions to update and modify specific settings. Users added to a group will inherit the default permissions, but these can be further adjusted on an individual level. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
