    I believe there is a REST API call for inviting a user to a group, but none to join or leave that I am aware of.

gleung, bbraglio, ikogan, VenkS,

 

There are APIs to join or leave a group now, but not working as expected.

https://community.lithium.com/t5/Developer-Documentation/bd-p/dev-doc-portal?section=commv1&leaf-id=Group.add#Group.add

https://community.lithium.com/t5/Developer-Documentation/bd-p/dev-doc-portal?section=commv1&leaf-id=Group.remove#Group.remove

 

groups.invitee (required) parameter is not working.

I am also waiting for updates on these APIs.

 

my API calls -

http://[community_url]/restapi/vc/groups/id/test-group/add?restapi.session_key=[key]&groups.invitee=users/login/[login]

http://[community_url]/restapi/vc/groups/id/test-group/remove?restapi.session_key=[key]&groups.invitee=users/login/[login]

 

Im getting below error -

<response status="error">
<error code="501">
<message>Unknown path element at node 'community.users'.</message>
</error>
</response>
 

 

Thanks,

Vaishnavi

I found out that I was missing forward slash(/) at the start of groups.invitee - groups.invitee=users/login/[login] - would not work groups.invitee=/users/login/[login] - this would work
