The Add Group Members smart service allows you to add a user (or users) to a group as a step in your process.
The Add Group Members smart service can only be executed by a System Administrator, or by administrators of the group in which new members are being added. If this task is assigned to any other user, a runtime exception is thrown and the process will be paused when that user attempts to submit the task generated by this node.
