Imran Aziz Thank you!
Giuseppe Carafa I will chase the technical support team. The support is the right forum to get such technical issues resolved, if there are any improvement requests or suggestions please feel free to raise with me as I am the Product manager for Integrations.
Hello Imran Aziz - Yes, I raised the issue with Support but I have not had a response yet; see: https://support.highqsolutions.com/hc/en-us/requests/39963
In a related request at https://support.highqsolutions.com/hc/en-us/requests/39975 I'm told that you're the main contact for these kinds of requests. I'm a bit confused at this point as to what kind of request I should raise with whom.
Giuseppe Carafa did you raise this issue with the HighQ support team, please raise this with support so that the technical support team can guide you. This API call should work, and looking at the logs the tech support team will be able to guide you how to go about it.
I've tried this call in various forms:
/groups/N
/groups/{N}
I'm setting the Accept variable on the Request to either "application/json" (in which case I get a 416 response, so I guess this call cannot return JSON) or "application/xml" (and then I'm getting a 403 Forbidden). I do think I am using the correct Group ID; I'm using the number that is shown in the metaData.targetGroupID=.... value when you look at the group through the Browser front end of my site.
Any suggestions?
