# Group

There can be multiple groups in an organization. It can be thought of as a department or a team in an Organization. For eg: Accounts, Marketing, Engineering, etc. Basically it is a team within an organization.

A group can be of three types

* **Public Group:** Anyone in the organization can find and join the group
* **Request to Join:** Everyone in the organization can see the group but cannot access it until they request to join. The admin will receive a request and can accept the request.
* **Private Group:** A private group is only visible to invited members. It can be identified by the lock icon beside its name.
