- (Optional) Restrict the Groups this administrator can send alerts toNote: Most admins do not need this applied to their profile. Administrators should only be assigned to specific groups if you want them to send messages exclusively within those groups. This assignment does not grant them the ability to receive alerts; instead, it enables them to send alerts. It is advisable to restrict them to designated top-level or sub-groups to streamline communication effectively.
