# User Groups

The User Groups endpoints allow you to retrieve and inspect logical groupings of users, typically synced from identity providers or directory systems. These groups often reflect teams, departments, or organizational roles, and they provide useful context for understanding and managing inherited access to applications.

These endpoints are commonly used to:

* Investigate which users belong to which groups
* Understand the default vs hidden app access granted via group membership
* Support group-based governance, reporting, or offboarding flows
