Manage

The Group API allows for integration with Falkor's Groups feature. The Manage endpoint allows for bulk adding and removal of users for a single group. When new users are added, Falkor app invites are sent automatically within 1 - 5 minutes.

Parameters

Key

Type

REQUIRED

group

String

OPTIONAL

add

Array of users (see below)

remove

Array of strings (valid emails)

app

String (e.g io.falkor.app)

invite

Integer (defaults to 1)

Invite Parameter

By default any new users added to groups will be sent an invite to the app. If you would like to disable this you can set the invite parameter to "0". Disabling invites will require invites to be manually sent from Falkor's Groups feature.

App Parameter

If you account is assigned multiple Falkor apps you can use the app parameter to assign the group to a specific app. The app parameter takes the app's reverse domain identity as an argument. If you only have 1 app on your account you would not need to provide this parameter as this is automatically assigned.

User

When using the add parameter it must be an array of users. firstname, lastname and email are required. If the email parameter is not valid, the response will contain warnings with applicable messages.

Key

Type

REQUIRED

firstname

String

lastname

String

email

String (Valid Email)

OPTIONAL

dialCode

String (e.g +44)

phoneNumber

String (e.g 0840001234)

The telephone parameter in the user object is deprecated. If you would like to add a telephone number use dialCode + phoneNumber

Example

The example below adds the user "test@example.com" and removes the user "test2@example.com" from the "Group API" group. When adding users to groups it will only insert new users and ignore existing users in the group.

Hint. If the group does not exist, it will automatically be created.

curl -X POST \
  v1/groups/manage \
  -H 'Authorization: Basic <Your Base64 Encoded Token>' \
  -d '{
	"group" : "Your Group Name",
	"add"  : [
		{
			"firstname" : "Test",
			"lastname"  : "User",
			"email"     : "test@example.com"   
		}
	],
	"remove" : ["test2@example.com"]
}'
