Do I need to grant a role to the owning group?

[bonsai]

We use the owning group function in knowledge management.

We are thinking of setting up a group record for the owning group without assigning a role.

A separate group exists for assigning roles.

Is there a problem with this design?

We would like to know if it is necessary to assign a role to the owning group itself.

Usually group should be assigned role as best practice.

Of course I know this.

I want to know if I need to grant a role to the group record that I want to use as the owning group

Hi @bonsai ,

If you already have the required knowledge role then you do not need to grant a role to the knowledge owner group.
