TAK Server Group Management Guide

Group Overview

Groups in TAK Server control user permissions and data visibility. Each group can have specific permission settings that determine how users within that group interact with data.

Default Settings

  • All users are automatically added to the ANON Group

  • __ANON__ Group default permission: Both (IN and OUT)

Permission Types

1. Both Permissions

  • Users can send and receive data

  • Full visibility of other users

  • Complete data sharing capabilities

2. Group IN

  • Users can only push data to the server

  • Cannot see other users in the group

  • Data flows one way: user โ†’ server

3. Group OUT

  • Users can see others on the server

  • Cannot push their own data to the server

  • Data flows one way: server โ†’ user

Best Practices

  • Create groups based on operational needs

  • Consider data sharing requirements when setting permissions

  • Review group memberships periodically

  • Use descriptive group names for easy management
