[role="_abstract"]
An Operator group defines multitenant configuration for OLM-installed Operators through an `OperatorGroup` resource. An Operator group selects target namespaces where the required RBAC access is generated for member Operators .

The set of target namespaces is provided by a comma-delimited string stored in the `olm.targetNamespaces` annotation of a cluster service version (CSV). This annotation is applied to the CSV instances of member Operators and is projected into their deployments.
