I guess the problem here is a confusion over "user", "group" and "role".
In PostgreSQL, there is no difference between user and role.
A "group" is a role (usually with NOLOGIN), and a "user" is a role with LOGIN.
You add a "user" to a "group" by granting the "group" to the "user:
GRANT usergroup TO user1;
If you want to give a bunch of users a certain set of privileges,
grant the privileges to a NOLOGIN role and grant that role to the users.
