Request Access if needed
- Request Access from another eGuard user by entering their username.
- If no user has permissions to the ‘Group’, contact eGauge Support HERE
Step 2: Navigate to ‘Create Group Permissions’ on the ‘Permissions’ page. Then add users to the relevant sub-group(s), giving them the required level of access.

Fruit:Pear
Fruit:Apple:FijiHere, Fruit is the parent to Pear, and Fruit is also the parent to Apple. If a user has access rights to group Fruit, those access rights also apply to Pear and Apple, and any sub-groups of those such as Fiji.
If a user has access rights to Pear, those rights would not apply to Apple Or Fiji or any devices directly under Fruit.
Similarly, a user with rights to Fiji would have no rights to devices under Pear or Apple or Fruit, only access to those devices under the Fiji sub-group.
