3. In the pop-up window, you must authenticate the groups.io account you want to connect to. This secure login process ensures that users are verified and authorized to access the system.

{% hint style="info" %}
Authenticated user accounts are saved at the sub-project level, so no reauthentication is required for new groups within the same sub-project. This process improves user convenience and reduces errors.

If your password changes or you need to switch to a different groups.io account, use the "Reverify account" feature to update your authentication information.
{% endhint %}

4. Enter the Email ID and the password, and click **Verify Account.**

5. After verification, you can connect to both groups and subgroups under **Connect groups**.
   * To connect a group, write down the name of the group.
   * To connect a subgroup, write down the group name, followed by +, followed by the subgroup name. E.g. groupName+subGroupName
6. Click **Connect.**
