163
The locations displayed in the deploy teams table are the list of unique location values from the users in the selected owner groups. This is to ensure the team deploys successfully as owners are mandatory. This means that an admin can create a team with only owners and no members as well(please see “Why am I seeing 0 users while trying to deploy?” FAQ for more information on this scenario).
