In this article, we explore the creation and management of Smart Groups within the platform. Smart Groups allow you to automate the organization of recipients based on dynamic criteria, making it easier to target specific audiences for training or phishing campaigns
1. To create a new group for recipients, click on the New Group button.
Add the group name and description then select smart group from group type and click NEXT STEP to proceed.
3. If you would like to return to the default page of Groups, just click on Go Back.
4. At the second stage of the process that is recipient related, you have the option to create recipients. This is optional, so you can proceed to the NEXT STEP accordingly.
5. If you wish to create users, you can do it manually by adding their details (ex. First Name, Email, etc.):
6. You can also select the position of that recipient through the drop-down list and click Add to finally add the draft user for review.
7. Alternatively, for larger groups of known people, you can mass add users on the platform by importing CSV files.
