Things can be grouped into different categories such as light sensors, gas meters and mobile phones etc. Each Things Group can be assigned to a specific department or unit within the organization. Things Groups are assigned various settings such as network, security, access control, alerts, users and these settings apply to all Things in the group. --- # Agent Instructions: 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.
