Unable to Edit a Group in Ziber Team?

Last updated on March 16, 2026

If you're trying to change a group in Ziber Team but options are unavailable, this likely has to do with your role or the type of group.

Summary

This article explains why you may not be able to edit a group in Ziber Team and how to resolve this, depending on your role and the group type.

1. You Don’t Have the Right Permissions

Only team members with the Communication Manager role can:

• Create, edit, or delete groups
• Assign team members to groups
• Change group details

🔒 If you're a teacher or assistant, you can view your assigned groups but not edit them.

2. You’re Trying to Edit the School Group

Each school has one school group, created automatically by Ziber:

• This group cannot be deleted
• You cannot change its name or members
• All parents are automatically linked to this group
• Only Communication Managers can send messages to it

What You Can Do as a Teacher

If you're a teacher assigned to a group:

• You can send messages to the group
• You can view the group’s students and parents
• But you cannot change the group name or composition

Need to Make a Change?

Contact a Communication Manager at your school if:

• You need to be added to a different group
• A group’s name or composition needs updating
• You believe your role should be changed
