Looks like you may want:

when: users\_group[0] in item.groups

You may also just wish to change this:

users\_group: admin

Hello Michael

Thanks for your answer.

users\_group:

- admin

I did it this way, because for some hosts (like development) the development guys needs to login to. So it would be like this:  
users\_group:

- admin
- development

Bit I will check this out!

Kind regards,  
Werner
