# Unsubscribe Member From One Group (C)

This job unsubscribes a member from one group. All other memberships remain unaffected.

A group owner who is also a member of the group can be unsubscribed and still retain ownership of the group. Group managers, deactivated recipients, and members (any status) can all be unsubscribed.

> Hint:
> 
> An unsubscribe is recorded in the group statsitics. The ​Define Job​ area defines whether confirmation messages are sent to each unsubscribed member. This is the system message ​SysMsgUnsubscribeFromGroup​.
> 
> As an alternative, you can remove members from groups. Removing members does not affect the group statistics, and no confirmation messages are sent. See [​Remove Member From Group (C)​](/v1/docs/remove-member-from-group-c).

> Hint:
> 
> The designation **(C)** means contact-related. In general, you only combine **contact (C) events** with **contact (C) jobs**. For more information, see [​Contact (C) vs. System (S) Automations​](/v1/docs/contact-c-vs-system-s-automations)

## Recommended Automations​

An automation is a combination of an event plus a resulting job. The following combinations are recommended. It is possible to create other combinations, as well, but not all combinations of events and jobs result in meaningful system behavior.

- **Message Link Clicked (C) + Unsubscribe Member from One Group (C):** This combination unsubscribes a member from a group when he clicks on a link in a message.

For this combination, check ​Use Event Parameter​ for the following fields: ​User​ and ​Group Name​.

> Hint:
> 
> To save time, add an unsubscribe link to a message using a Engage Variable.

## General

| ​Name​ | Displays the name of the automation that is defined in the **​Edit Event**​ window. |
| --- | --- |
| ​Description​ | Displays the description of the automation that is defined in the ​**Edit Event**​ window. |
| ​Event​ | Displays the event that is defined in the ​**Edit Event​** window. Every time this event occurs, Engage executes the dependent job. |
| ​Job​ | Defines the job. Engage executes this job automatically every time the event occurs. For a list of all available jobs, see [​All Available Event-Based Jobs​](/v1/docs/all-available-event-based-jobs). |

## Define Job​

This area defines the specific parameters of the job.

- **Contact:** This input field defines the contact who is unsubscribed. Use the ![](https://cdn.document360.io/554b9b98-6720-4d8b-9919-c7b203d72648/Images/Documentation/a2af683a-d9bd-4338-9c79-74cad56a33d1.png) symbol to select one contact.
  - **Use Event Parameter:** When selected, this checkbox selects the same contact that was involved in the event and uses him for the job.
- **Message:** This drop-down field defines a message. This is the message to which the unsubscribe is attributed in the statistics.
- **Send Confirmation:** This drop-down field defines whether the contact receives a confirmation email. This is the system message ​SysMsgUnsubscribeFromGroup​.

## Define Delay​

In this area, you can define a time delay between the event and the resulting job. If you define a delay, the system waits the specified amount of time after the event takes place before executing the event-based job. If you do not define a delay, the system executes the job immediately after the event takes place.

> Hint:
> 
> Engage calculates the selection for an event-based job when the job is executed, not when the event takes place. When you define a delay, the selection is calculated after the delay

- **​Delay:​** Defines whether there is a delay between the event and the resulting job.
  - **​No:** ​There is no delay between the event and the resulting job. When Engage registers the event, the system executes the job immediately.
  - **​Yes:** ​Creates a delay between the event and the resulting job. **​Unit:​** Defines the unit of time with which Engage calculates the delay. **​Value:​** Defines the duration of the delay.

## Actions
