User groups
User groups allow you to mention multiple users at once. When you mention a user group, everyone in the group is notified as if they were individually mentioned.
Note that user groups are not the same as group direct messages. If you're trying to send a message to a group of people, you'll want to either create a stream, or send a group direct message.

Configure who can create and manage user groups
{!admin-only.md!}
By default, all members 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.
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.
{start_tabs}
{settings_tab|organization-permissions}
- Under Other permissions, configure Who can create and manage user groups.
