Why This Matters: Group Management

Preventing Accidental Data Loss

Deleting a group is permanent. Requiring all plans to be removed first, using Plan Cleanup, gives admins a deliberate checkpoint before the group itself — and everything tied to it — is gone for good.

Keeping Group Records Accurate

Renaming a group as your organization’s naming conventions change keeps the Group Name field aligned with how your teams actually refer to the environment.
