When first installed, your system contains only certain access groups, each linked to the standard application rule PegaRULES.06.01.zz.
Caution: To protect the integrity of your Pega 7 Platformsystem and to avoid upgrade issues, you cannot update these access groups. As a best practice, use the New Application wizard to create access groups and Operator IDs for your organization.
To list all of the access groups on your system, select Designer Studio > Org & Security > Security > Access Groups.

PRPC:Administrators |
An access group that serves as a template for access groups for developers, system administrators, and other users of the Designer Studio. Caution: Except upon initial use of a newly installed Pega 7 Platform system, do not log in with Operator IDs that directly reference this access group, which has special restrictions preventing certain updates. Instead, create organization-specific operators and access groups using the Organization Setup gadget. See More about Access Groups. |
PRPC:Agents |
For all Note: For service requests, this access group applies only temporarily, until the system finds the service package, typically using a key part provided by the listener or the arriving request. At that point, the access group in the Service Package data instance (Data-Admin-ServicePackage class) applies, whether or not the service request is to be authenticated. That access group can provide the service with access to other RuleSets, privileges, and access roles. |
PRPC:PortalUsers |
For JSR-168-compliant portlet access. See About Service Portlet rules. |
PRPC:Unauthenticated |
For guest users. |
PRPC:WorkManagers |
For managers. This is a sample; create access groups for managers that provide access to the portal, RuleSets, and privileges appropriate to their needs. |
PRPC:WorkUsers |
For users who are not managers. This is a sample; create access groups for managers that provide access to the portal, RuleSets, and privileges appropriate to their needs. |
