What permission should a user have to add members to a group using API?

Project Migrator

Hello,

I try to add a user to a group using API. I do it under account with Group Admin role. But unfortunately I get 403 Forbidden response with json

{

"errorCode": 1004,

"message": "You are not authorized to perform this action."

}

What permissions are enough to perform such operation?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi @Project Migrator

You are correct that the permission needed to add a user to a Group (via API or UI) would be Group Admin. (See: Admin Center: Manage and Use Smartsheet Contact Groups for the UI explanation or Add Group Members in the API documentation).

If this isn't working for you, I would suggest asking to be upgraded to a System Admin as well to see if that helps.

Otherwise, please reach out to the Support team with screen captures of the request you're making and the email address of the account you're using.

Cheers,

Genevieve
