Groups Limits New
Since version 2.1.6 we introduced a Group Limit feature which allows Group Ambassadors admins to limit the number of users Ambassadors can add in a group. Simply pick a group, define a limit:

Please note that this will prevent Ambassadors from adding users in groups they can manage. Jira Administrators can still add users in groups from the User Management interface of Jira.
Group Browsing PoliciesÂ
Group Ambassadors allows you to define "group policies" which are used to filter which groups can be browsed from group browser.

For each group in your instance, you can choose to apply group browsing policies: either disabling group browsing to everyone (including admins!) or restricting group browsing to certain users/groups.
To do so, simply pick a group in the "Group" dropdown, choose the policy type (and if you want to restrict, choose which groups/users can access from the two new dropdowns . Once ready, click "Add", if anything goes wrong, you'll be notified!
All policy changes are logged in Group Ambassadors Logs.
Policies conflict
Please note that if a group have a "Disable" policy applied, you won't be able to add restrict rules which would be in conflict. If you try to do so, you'll be notified!
The opposite is true as well: if you restricted group browsing to certain users/groups, you won't be able to add a new "Disable" policy to that same group.
In both cases, you'll have to delete the conflicting rule before adding a new one!
