What is the relation between child groups and the All Users group?

Child groups being linked to the All Users group means they inherit specific security settings established at the level of the All Users group. In Appian, the All Users group typically serves as a base group that includes all users within the organization. By inheriting security from this group, child groups can automatically align with broader access and permission configurations, simplifying management.

This inherited security structure allows administrators to efficiently manage user permissions since they can set permissions at a higher level (All Users) and have those settings automatically cascade down to child groups. This relationship facilitates uniform security protocols across the organization, minimizing the need for repetitive configurations for each child group.

The other choices do not accurately capture this relationship. For instance, stating that child groups are independent does not reflect their connection to the All Users group, while the claim that child groups must be manually linked overlooks the automatic inheritance feature. Therefore, recognizing that child groups inherit security from the All Users group is crucial for understanding user management and security settings in Appian.
