A relationship cloud is composed of a set of users and communities that can interact with each other. This feature is used to restrict access to social content.
When the relationship cloud feature is enabled, users and communities can only interact with who is present in the same relationship cloud. For example, a user will only see the profile of other users and the content of the communities that are also part of the relationship cloud in which it is inserted.
In a relationship cloud, it is possible to insert individual users, groups of users and communities.
It is possible to set a default relationship cloud, which is the main cloud and will always be suggested at the time of creating a new user or a new community. If no other cloud is related to the user or to the community, they are automatically related to the default cloud.
