When cnfiguring a team of users, I’d like to be able to assign permissions to project groups, rather than to individual projects. I’m running 2.6.5.1010 and I can’t do this. I’m a bit confused about whether this should or should not be possible.
The current documentation (http://docs.octopusdeploy.com/display/OD/Project+Groups) says that permissions can be restricted to project groups. This documentation is clearly out of date, because it also references controlling deploy environments and retention policies, which are no managed in lifecycles.
This forum post http://help.octopusdeploy.com/discussions/questions/4214-project-groups-documentation reports this issue, and the response seems to to suggest that permissions can be scoped to project groups.
This post http://help.octopusdeploy.com/discussions/questions/1990-project-group-and-ad-group-security suggests that this a feature that was being worked on, but has now been been knocked back to user voice (http://octopusdeploy.uservoice.com/forums/170787-general/suggestions/6155857-project-group-security).
SHould I be able to use project groups for permissions, or not?
