Hi all,

I am not able to get computer groups which are present in bigfix in BFI console? Any idea what would be the issue?

There are two types of computer groups: groups created in BigFix Inventory and groups created in the BigFix console. The former are used to ensure that each user views reports only for relevant computers. They are also used to assign contracts to appropriate sets of computers. The latter are used to manage the infrastructure, assign computers to Fixlet sites, and run Fixlets against selected endpoints.

The two types of computer groups are independent. Groups that are created in BigFix Inventory are not automatically copied to BigFix and the other way round.
