# Set up account-level reporting

With [account-level reporting](/docs/analytics/account-level-reporting), you can set up aggregated, group-level analyses. This article explains the setup steps for each data source.

## Before you begin

Before you use account-level reporting, instrument groups in your Amplitude project.

After you instrument groups, supported charts include a group dropdown in the chart control panel. Use the dropdown to choose whether the chart counts events by users or groups.

Amplitude has a limit of five group types per project.

## SDKs

Follow instructions for each [Amplitude SDK](/docs/sdks/analytics) to enable and configure account-level reporting.

### Identify API

If you send data to Amplitude server-side, use the `groups` key in your identification object. The `groups` key associates a user with a group. For more information about instrumenting groups with the Identify API, refer to the [Identify API](/docs/apis/analytics/identify) documentation.

### HTTP API

If you send data to Amplitude server-side, use the `groups` key in your event object. The `groups` key adds event-level groups that persist only on that event. For more information about instrumenting groups with the HTTP API, refer to the [HTTP API](/docs/apis/analytics/http-v2) documentation.

## Segment

To set group types in Amplitude through Segment, enable these Amplitude destination settings and provide the relevant values:

- **Group Type Trait:** The trait in your Segment `group` calls that contains the group type.
- **Group Value Trait:** The trait in your Segment `group` calls that contains the group value.

You can set groups and group properties using Segment's `group` call. Refer to [Segment integration](#segment) for more information about instrumenting groups with Segment.

## Create groups using the Group Identify API

Using the Group Identify API, you can create a new group with expected group properties or update group properties for an existing group. In the example requests, parameters and keys appear in *italics*. Replace the underlined values with the parameters you need.

For more information about instrumenting groups with the Group Identify API, review the [Group Identify API](/docs/apis/analytics/group-identify) documentation.
