Members - Tasks tab

If you created the task group from the SETTINGS > Task Group page, initially the group has no members. Click Add Tasks, select tasks, and click OK.

If you created the task group using Bulk Actions, the group contains all the tasks in the list at that time.

To remove a task from the group, click the red X.

Members - Tabs for member types:

  • Hosts
  • Scripts
  • SSH Keys
  • SSL Certs
  • PGP Keys

 

In each tab:

Assigned members - You can add members of that type to the task group. Click the tab and click Add <member type>.

Referenced members: In each tab, items of that type that are associated with the tasks in the group are listed in dimmed font. For example, if a task has a source or destination that uses a specific host, the host is a referenced member. Referenced members provide read-only access to task elements.

To promote a referenced member to an assigned member, click icon_promote.

4. Click Save. The Updated Task Group <group name> message displays.

The selected tasks are added to the task group.
