A data processing system that receives user input specifying datasets on which operations are performed with user interfaces that enable manipulation of hierarchical groups of datasets. A user interface may enable individual datasets or a previously defined group of datasets to be aggregated into another grouping. The groupings may be scoped, including by persona of users, such that, when a user is prompted to specify one or more datasets as a target of an operation by the data processing system, the available choices are limited to datasets that have a scope encompassing that user. The interfaces may prompt a user to select a grouping within the hierarchy that contains datasets on which the operation can be performed. Upon selection of a grouping with multiple datasets as a target of an operation that is performed on datasets singly, the operation may be performed on each dataset in the selected group.
