# Manage Group Dashboard

<figure><img src="/files/9dbFnHdY30ytBmP96kb5" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Once your Telegram group is connected to Hubz, the **Manage Group Dashboard** becomes the control centre for that group.

All configuration, access controls, and group-level settings are managed from this screen. Whether you’re setting up access rules, sharing invite links, or reviewing analytics, you’ll return to this dashboard.

***

### What Is the Manage Group Dashboard?

The Manage Group Dashboard is the main interface for any connected Telegram group.

It provides a live overview of:

* Group status
* Access gating configuration
* Active token or NFT requirements
* Invite link controls
* Additional group actions

Every feature module (Access Gating, Staking, Analytics) is accessed from here.

***

### How to Access the Dashboard

You can open the Manage Group Dashboard in two ways:

#### After Connecting a Group

Once you add the Hubz bot to your Telegram group, Hubz prompts you to return to the app. The group will appear under **My Groups**, where you can select it to open the dashboard.

#### At Any Time

Open the Hubz app from Telegram, navigate to **My Groups**, and select the group you want to manage.

***

### What You’ll See on the Dashboard

The layout is organised into key sections:

#### Group Overview

* Group name and member count
* Share button (for gated invite links)
* Navigation tabs (e.g. Overview / Analytics)

#### Group Entry Message

* The message shown to users before accessing the group
* Editable at any time

#### Access Gating

* Current status: **Enabled** or **Disabled**
* Active token, NFT, or custom asset requirements
* Edit controls to update rules

#### Group Actions

* Export verified members
* Deactivate the group (remove Hubz)

### What’s Next?

With your group connected and the **Manage Group Dashboard** available, the next step is to configure how members access your community.

The first and most common module to set up is **Access Gating**, which allows you to control entry using tokens or NFTs.

From here, you can:

* Define who is eligible to join your group.
* Choose which tokens or NFTs unlock access
* Set verification rules (one-time or ongoing)
