As a project administrator, you can use Project Roles to define various levels of access based on your team or organization's needs. You can then assign the users within groups to the appropriate Project Roles.

To assign Project Groups to Project Roles in the Project Administration Portal, users must have either

a) the "View Groups, Project Roles, and Project Role Assignments" privilege in their Project Administrator Role, or

b) the "Administer All Projects" privilege in their Instance Administrator Role.
