Delete an action group

When an action group is deleted, any explicit permissions assigned to that group are no longer in effect.
For example, suppose an action group named "Operators" was used to explicitly grant write access to an area named "Mixing" for a user account "Chris". If the "Operators" action group is deleted, "Chris" can no longer write to the "Mixing" area. Creating another "Operators" action group will not restore "Chris" the ability to write to "Mixing".
If an action group is inadvertently deleted and restoring the FactoryTalk Directory from a backup is not feasible, all security permissions assigned to the resources that were using the action group must be recreated.
Prerequisites
  1. Before deleting an action group, back up the
    FactoryTalk Directory
    .
  2. Deleting an acting group requires these security permissions for the
    Action Groups
     folder:
    • Common > Read
    • Common > List Children
    • Common > Delete
To delete an action group
  1. In
    FactoryTalk Administration Console
    Explorer
    , expand the
    Action Groups
     folder.
  2. Right-click the action group and select
    Delete
    .
