This example demonstrates how to assign groups to roles to control access across the
organization using role-based group membership.
Example scenario:
- There are three distinct access levels across the organization: Data Admins,
Analysts, and Visual Consumers.
- There are three teams: Marketing, Sales, and Operations.
The Require all groups option is used to ensure that users must
belong to both groups to receive the role.
