# Automated user management

**Automated user management** allows you to manage a large set of users with **minimal human involvement**. With automated user management, you can specify criteria on parameters based o profile to add users to the group and remove users from the group. 

{% hint style="info" %}
E.g. You want to automatically add those users to a sample group "Technology coordination" whose profile has the value in the field "department" as "technology" 

If the value in the department is updated to something else like "accounts" those users should be removed automatically from the above-mentioned group 
{% endhint %}

Specifying these criteria makes the system detect changes in the user profiles and propagate those changes within the group automatically. 

The benefits of **Automated User Management** are:

1. Reduces manual data handling, thus **reducing the chance of error**
2. Gives the system admins a greater **access control**
3. **Reduces the workload** of system admins significantly since the tedious task of adding or removing members is automatically handled by the system.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.senpiper.com/groups-applications/managing-group-members/automated-user-management.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
