# Group settings

## Managing Group Settings

Each group's settings can be managed individually. What settings you have access to depend on your [role in the group](#role-based-group-settings-permissions) (admin vs member).

To open the **Group Settings** details, simply click the **Group name** at the top of the screen when the Group is open in your app. This will open a modal with options to view **members**, **notifications**, and— if you're an admin— **apps** and **settings** for that Group.

Alternatively, you can click the **ellipsis (⋯)** in the upper-right corner of the screen. This opens a dropdown menu with the same options mentioned above, and clicking on them will open the modal.

## Role-based group settings permissions

What you can modify depends on whether or not you are an admin who is a member of the group (either group admin or a workspace admin), or a group member.
