Search for groups

As with the management of evidence, cases, devices, and users, Axon Evidence provides a search feature to help you find groups that you need to work with.

For each group in search results, you can access a Group Profile page, which shows the group title and number of members. The external ID appears below the group title. For groups created by the Create Group page in Axon Evidence, the external ID is a hyphenated hexadecimal number automatically assigned by Axon Evidence. For groups created by an external source, such as an imported CSV file, the Axon Evidence Partner API, or automatic provisioning with Microsoft Azure Active Directory, the external ID is the value assigned by the external source.

The page also provides access to the group monitor list, the group audit trail, a list of all evidence owned by members of the group, and whether the group can receive evidence shared by a partner agency.
