Public Product Groups
If your group is public, you can also view a preview of how the page would appear on your site.
Private Products Groups
Once your changes have been saved, head over to your Product Group tab under the Inventory section then click on the funnel to sort and view the filters for your groups.
Utilize these filters to observe and handle your groups, considering the elements used and whether the group is public or private. 
These groups can also be viewed and edited in your Product tab of your Inventory section by clicking on the same filter.

Managing Private Products with Customer and Product Groups
To hide products from the public and show them only to specific customers, assign a customer group to a product group. Make sure both the customer group and product group are already created. Customers must be logged in for this to work. You can refer to our articles on how to create a customer group and how to create a product group.
Fill out all required fields and add the correct product tags while the product group is Public. Then switch it to Private—fields will appear greyed out. To make changes, switch back to Public, update, then return to Private and save.
To complete the process, copy the product group’s Landing Page URL and share it with the appropriate customer group.
