## Configure who can create and manage user groups

|
|
By default, [all members](/help/roles-and-permissions) in a Zulip
|
|
organization can create user groups and manage user groups that they
|
|
are a member of. However, you can restrict that ability to specific
|
|
[roles](/help/roles-and-permissions).
|
|
|
|
Note that administrators and moderators can modify any user group,
|
|
while other organization members can only modify user groups to which
|
|
they belong. Guests cannot modify or create user groups.
