Allow groups to have multiple parent groups

1 source thread · first seen 2023-07

Summary

A team organizes its directory as a DAG of groups; authentik only allows one parent per group. They currently manage the DAG externally and want to leave that setup, since binding central groups directly loses nested-group benefits.

Affects
Teams moving from AWS SSO with shared central groups
Workaround
Manage the DAG externally and render it to flat groups
