This action adds a user to a local group on remote computers. You can use it to add users to local Administrators group without using command line remotely (similar to running "net localgroup administrators on remote computer), or use it instead of a script to add domain user to local admin group on multiple servers or workstations.

Adding certain domain users and groups as members to local groups on workstations is usually done as a part of provisioning access to endpoints via Active Directory groups. Action1 can help to automate the management of local group memberships from the Cloud without using any command line tools or PowerShell scripts to add user to local group.
