This is not completely true. a!groupmembers can only return members which are visible to the user in whose context the function is called.

Now the term "visible" becomes complicated because of multiple overlapping settings and security. There is group privacy and visibility, as well as a general configuration whether users are visible to each other in the admin console.

This is because a!groupmembers() function can only return members of the group which loggedInUser is part of, so it might be that there are some groups in All User system group for which the other user do not have permission that's why there is a count difference.

ravib0008 Did it work after that? If not, can you please attach some screenshots for reference of the group, the count that you are getting etc?

The system All Users Group is driven by a rule - I'm not sure a Group's visibility policy has any effect here.

Is that constant pointing to that group or some other group?

Thanks for reply.The group (cons!ALL_USERS,) privacy policy is set to low (members can see each other) .. Public/Closed/Low. I think more than likely its the subgroups that might be restricted. Thanks for the pointers though, appreciate.

This can be because of the group's privacy policy (find it in group properties). Try changing it to the lowest level to check if that is why it is happening.

Use the documentation to understand what is the privacy policy - docs.appian.com/.../Group_Management.html
