There are several ways to add permission sets to permission set groups. The most efficient method depends on how many updates you're making. You can add up to 100 permission sets to a permission set group. ![Tip](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-access-264-0-0-production-enus/a92be132-3cbc-412a-9262-130636120c14/images/icon_tip.png) Tip Instead of completing this task manually, get help from Setup with Agentforce. For example, ask the Setup agent, “Can you add the Full Account Access permission set to the Sales Manager permission set group?” For more information, see [User Access Management in Setup with Agentforce](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.setup_agentforce_user_access.htm&language=en_US). #### See Also - [Permission Sets](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.perm_sets_overview.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "A permission set is a collection of settings and permissions that give users access to various tools and functions. Permission sets extend users’ functional access without changing their profiles and are the recommended way to manage your users’ permissions.") ## Add a Single Permission Set to Multiple Permission Set Groups If you're adding a permission set to several permission set groups, it's most efficient to make these updates from the permission set's summary page. 1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Permission Sets, and then select **Permission Sets**. 2. Select a permission set. 3. Click **View Summary**. 4. In the Related Permission Set Groups tab, click **Add**. Select permission set groups, and then click **Add**. ## Add Multiple Permission Sets to a Permission Set Group from the Summary Page If you're adding multiple permission sets to the same permission set group, you can make this update from the permission set group's summary page. 1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Permission Set Groups, and then select **Permission Set Groups**. 2. Select a permission set group. 3. Click **View Summary**. 4. In the Included Permission Sets tab, click **Add**. 5. Select permission sets, then click **Add**. After the update is complete, the permission set group status changes to Updated. ## Add Multiple Permission Sets to a Permission Set Group from the Detail Page If you're adding multiple permission sets to the same permission set group, you can also make this update from the permission set group's detail page. 1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Permission Set Groups, and then select **Permission Set Groups**. 2. Select a permission set group. 3. Click **Permission Sets in Group**. 4. On the Add Permission Sets detail page, select the permission sets that you want to add to the group, and click **Add**. ![Tip](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-access-264-0-0-production-enus/a92be132-3cbc-412a-9262-130636120c14/images/icon_tip.png) Tip For easier management, you can first create a list view to filter permission sets. Then select this list view when you add permission sets to the permission set group. 5. Click **Done**. After the update is complete, the permission set group status changes to Updated.
