Ad-Hoc Google Group Memberships
Any time a student or staff requests to be part of a managed group but is not automatically added (ad-hoc), the changes have to be made via the NIM Dashboard and not in Google itself.  If they are added directly in Google, NIM will remove them during the next sync.  Below are the steps for adding an "ad-hoc" member via NIM.


  1. Click on Ad-Hoc Memberships from the NIM Dashboard: https://im.dcgschools.net/app/Dashboard
  2. Use the search bar to locate the group where the users will be added.  Click on the group to highlight it.
  3. In most cases, you will click Add/Remove Members.  (If this is a staff member trying to email one of the Class of mailing lists, they need manager permisisons, so in this case you would Add/Remove Managers.  This is rare.)
  4. Use the left search bar to find users you want to add, then click the add button to include them in the ad-hoc group.
  5. Click Update Memberships.

The memberships will be updated during the next daily sync.
