Advanced group settings

Learn how to add additional advanced settings to a user group to set a relative deadline

Limit membership duration

The Limit membership duration feature allows non default user groups to have a to set a time limit on a user's membership to a group. Once a user joins a group, a configurable duration can be applied, after which their access to the group will automatically be revoked. This is helpful for removing a users access to collections, or revoking a users permission set.

Removing a user from a group will only revoke collection access, it does not remove access to any previously generated exam attempts or assignments, which would need to be revoked manually.

Limit user group access

Set a duration on the advanced page, once set users will be able to stay in that group for that amount of time. The duration is relative to when they join this means if a duration is set for 5 days and a user joins on August 21st at 1pm they will be removed from the group on August 26th at 1pm. Go to the users management table to see the date and time a user joined and the date and time they'll be removed.

Changing an existing membership duration will immediately impact all existing users in a group, this means if you have a limit set to 10 days and change it to 7 days, any existing users who've been in the group for more than 7 days will be removed upon saving.
