Objective

To create a group in the Conversations tool on the Procore Android app.

Background

When you create a group in the Conversations tool, you are creating a group conversation that allows you to send a message to a designated team members at the same time. These group messages can be viewed and replied by team members in the Groups section of the Conversations tool, organized by project.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
  • Additional Information:
    • You are automatically added to a group that you create.
    • If the Conversations tool is configured to allow only 'Administrators' to create and manage groups, we recommend keeping at least one Admin in a group so that it can be managed. Admin users are shown with (Admin) after their name in the user selection list.
    • Each group in the Conversations tool can support up to 2,000 members.
