Out of the box, how many access groups does the system architect receive?

The system architect receives three access groups out of the box. Access groups in Pega are essential for defining the roles and permissions for users, allowing for the management of access to applications, data, and rules.

Each access group is tied to a particular role and helps in establishing the environment in which the user will operate. The roles typically correspond to different functional needs within the organization, ensuring that users have appropriate permissions based on their responsibilities. These predefined access groups facilitate a quicker setup of user security and access requirements, making it easier for organizations to implement Pega solutions efficiently.

It is important to note that while Pega may provide these default access groups, organizations will often tailor configurations and create additional groups based on unique operational needs, enhancing security and user experience in their applications.
