# Create an email group

In the Administration perspective within the Pentaho User Console, you can create email groups and add emails to these groups as needed. You can use these groups when sending scheduled reports.

Perform the following steps to create an email group:

1. From the User Console **Home** menu, click **Administration**.

   The Users / Roles page appears.
2. Click **Email Groups**.

   The Email Groups page for managing emails and email groups appears.

   ![Email Groups page](/files/3erBZvYZQZSRrMx2X2Qz)

   **Note:** You may experience a delay in loading information for e-mail groups containing a large number of emails.
3. On the **Manage Groups** tab, click the plus sign to add an email group.
4. In the New Group window, specify a name for the new email group in the **Name** field, then click **OK**.

   The new email group is added to the list of available groups. The email group name only accepts alphanumeric characters.

   **Note:** Available emails are only displayed when you select a group.
5. To add an email address to the group, select the group and then use the Right Arrow (>) to add a single email or the Double-Right Arrow (>>) to add all available emails to the **Selected** list.

   To add individual email addresses, use the **Manage Emails** tab.
6. (Optional) Use the **Search** box to find email addresses by either the first or last name of the recipient or the address itself.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.pentaho.com/pba/10.2-analytics/pentaho-user-console/about-pentaho-user-console-perspectives/schedules/schedule-reports/set-up-emails-for-scheduled-reports/create-an-email-group.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.
