Certain system groups are available to assist you with administering components of the application suite.
The following system groups are available:
The Application Users, Tempo Users, Designers, Service Accounts, and Quick App Creators groups correspond to User Roles, which control access to certain areas of Appian.
System groups can be modified by the Administrator user account, System Administrator users, or the Group Administrator(s) with the following restrictions:
Basic Users must be a member of the Process Model Creators group in order to create new process models, or configure the Query Database or Call Web Service Smart Services.

The Process Model Creators group is configured with the following security settings:
NOTE: Users added to the Process Model Creators Group are automatically added to the Designer Role which gives them access to design all aspects of an application.
The Tempo Message Audience Groups is a system group to which other, member groups can be added. Member groups can be used to define participants on News posts or recipients of News messages.
For users to be able to see and select a group as a participant on a News post or recipient of a message, the group must be added to the Tempo Message Audience Groups system group by a system administrator.
Only groups are recognized as members; individual users are ignored and will have no impact. Once membership is updated and saved, the changes are reflected to users when they log back into the system.
Only Public and Restricted groups can be added to the Tempo Message Audience Groups system group. Each group added becomes available for its members to select and send messages to it on the News Feed. Whether or not non-members can select the enabled groups or see messages sent to these groups depends on the security settings for the group and message.

for non-members. If the message is locked, only members of the group and the message author can search for and see it in their News feed and the group name displays correctly.NOTE: Any users or groups added to these system groups also gain the same functionality within Appian Mobile applications.

The Health Check Viewers group allows you to automatically share Health Check reports. Members of the group will be notified via email each time a report becomes available, and will be able to download the report from a secured News post.

Health Check must be set up in the Administration Console, and automatic upload must be enabled in order for these viewers to see the Health Check report.
You can access the Health Check Viewers group from the link on the Health Check Settings page or by searching for the group in the objects view of Appian Designer. You can add both individual users and groups as members (see Group Management).
