Overview

This node operation retrieves administrative information about a specific group in a messaging or collaboration platform. It is designed for administrators who need detailed insights or metadata about a group identified by its unique ID. Common use cases include managing group settings, auditing group membership, or integrating group data into other workflows.

Use Case Examples

  1. An admin wants to fetch detailed info about a group to verify its members and settings before making changes.
  2. Automating the retrieval of group info to sync with an external database for reporting purposes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Session The session name used to authenticate and identify the user session for the request.
Id The unique identifier of the group to retrieve information for.
Request Options Additional options to customize the request behavior, such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy settings, and timeout duration.

Output

JSON

  • groupInfo - The detailed administrative information about the specified group.

Dependencies

  • Requires an authenticated session to the messaging platform, typically via a session name or token.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the session name is valid and active; invalid sessions will cause authentication errors.
  • Verify the group ID is correct and accessible by the admin user; unauthorized or non-existent group IDs will result in errors.
  • If SSL issues occur, consider enabling the option to ignore SSL certificate validation, but be aware of security risks.
  • Check proxy settings if network requests fail due to connectivity issues.
  • Adjust timeout settings if the server response is slow to avoid premature request abortion.
