SAML asignment using group and user data

Question

Hi,
We are using SAML to asign users to groups upon login, using 2 different types of rules:
 - Group based - matching SAML groups to Appian Groups (for example - Director)
 - Rule based - matching user data (taken from SAML properties) to Appian Groups (for example - Office)

We need to be able to create sub-groups using info from Groups + User data (to create a group for - Office Director). We need these groups to be able to assign tasks.

We've tried multiple things but haven't ben able to find a solution to execute this online, and therefore have gone to a batch solution. Is there a way to:
 - create a group from an interesection of 2 groups?
 - create a group using group + user attribute data?

Thanks

you could maybe use the 10 custom fields that Appian users have to save the names of the groups he/she is in, and then in the membership rule when you want to add certain people you can check these custom fields to see which groups a certain user is in, and based on that you can add or remove them from groups
