I am looking to add a Group as an Admin of another group in process. The existing Add Group Admins Smart Service only allows you to specify Users. Is there another way I can accomplish this? It seems odd that Remove Group Admins lets you specify Users or Groups for removal but that the Add Group Admins only allows users....

Check out the Modify Process Security smart service
forum.appian.com/.../Modify_User_Security_Smart_Service

which allows you to overwrite a specific user's entire role map with the users and groups entered in the node input roles.

I may not have explained my use case clearly. I am not concerned about modifying the security of an individual process or of an individual user. I would like to add a Group as an Admin of another group.

Check out the create custom group smart service
forum.appian.com/.../Create_Custom_Group_Smart_Service

This lets you create groups, however only administrator users are allowed to run the process.

For what it's worth, I brought this issue up earlier this year and they ended up opening an Enhancement Request ticket. I can link the forum thread if necessary.
