Property Value

Type: System.Collections.ObjectModel . . :: . . ReadOnlyCollection < (Of < ( <' GroupChatPrincipalSummary > ) > ) >

The user groups to which this principal belongs.

Remarks

Local users belong to a domain (see Domain ), a hierarchy of Active Directory containers and organizational units (see DirectoryFolder , as well as an arbitrary number of security groups and distribution lists (see DirectoryGroup ). Affiliation with these various user groups can be used to grant permissions to a user, as well as membership or management roles on chat rooms.

Federated users are not defined in the local Active Directory. For manageability, each GroupChatFederatedUser belongs to exactly one GroupChatFederatedUserGroup , which can be used to aggregate permissions and roles on a set of federated users.

User groups may also have an affiliated membership list. A security group or distribution list ( DirectoryGroup ) principal may be defined as a member of an arbitrary number of other directory groups, and an active directory container ( DirectoryFolder ) exists in a hierarchy of directory containers. There is no affiliated membership list for a GroupChatFederatedUserGroup .
