  1. Open admin portal https://admin.google.com/  and on the left side under “Directory” click on Groups and on the top, you will find an option to “Create group”.
  2. Name the group and give a suitable description. Create the Email address for the group and you can make the required person as the Owner of the Group (You can even leave that field) then hit Next.

4. Scroll down and check “Who can Join the group”, currently I set as “Only invited Users” you can set as per your requirement.
