Code Samples

JavaScript (fetch)

const accessToken = 'YOUR_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN';
const orgId = 'YOUR_ORGANIZATION_ID';
const groupId = 'GROUP_ID_TO_GET'; // ID of the group

const queryParams = '?with=assets'; // Example
const apiUrl = `https://api.tallyfy.com/organizations/${orgId}/groups/${groupId}${queryParams}`;

const headers = new Headers();
headers.append('Authorization', `Bearer ${accessToken}`);
headers.append('Accept', 'application/json');
headers.append('X-Tallyfy-Client', 'APIClient');

fetch(apiUrl, {
    method: 'GET',
    headers: headers
})
.then(response => {
    if (!response.ok) {
        // Error handling...
        return response.json().then(errData => { throw new Error(/*...*/); }).catch(() => { throw new Error(/*...*/); });
    }
    return response.json();
})
.then(data => {
    console.log(`Successfully retrieved group ${groupId}:`);
    console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
})
.catch(error => {
    console.error(`Error getting group ${groupId}:`, error);
});

Response

A successful request returns a 200 OK status code and a JSON object containing a data field with the group’s details.

{
  "data": {
    "id": "GROUP_ID_TO_GET",
    "name": "Sales Team",
    "description": "Handles all sales inquiries.",
    "logo": "https://.../group_logo.png", // Included if requested with 'with=assets'
    "members": [1001, 1005],
    "guests": ["client.a@example.com"],
    "created_at": "2023-03-10T09:00:00Z",
    "updated_at": "2024-04-20T10:00:00Z",
    "deleted_at": null
  }
}

If the group ID is not found or you lack permission, a 404 Not Found or 403 Forbidden error will be returned.
