Querying Groups and Users top down?

[Suroor_Wijdan]

Hi there,

Is it possible to fetch groups and users in a top-down manner? I see there is an includeAncerstors flag on the API but no top-down filter.

We are building a complete standalone User and organization management console which is also multi-tenant and multi-level. Can we pull in a group and all its child groups and also the same for the users?

Any direction or help will be much appreciated. Thanks

Hi @Suroor_Wijdan,

Could you describe your use case a bit further? I am pulling some resources for you now on how to accomplish this.

Thanks!

Hi @Suroor_Wijdan,

There is currently a feature request open for this functionality as it is not currently possible to get all of the users and subusers of a group. However, the following posts include similar questions or may assist as you build your multi-level user view:

Get list of all users who have access to a device within an experience

I’m working on a notification system for our experience users and would like to trigger on demand event notifications. Everything is working as expected expect I can’t quite figure out how to get a list of users who have access to a device. My workflow strategy has been: on event trigger -> get event via relayId -> get device via deviceId returned from event -> get group via device tags returned. What I now want to do is return all users associated with that group, which I can then loop on …

Display a list of devices based on experience user group

I’m attempting to use an experience dashboard page to generate a list of devices matching a device tag value. The value is obtained from an experience user group. Each experience user belongs to a customer group, and each device has a Customer tag to match with the user’s Group. This defines a list of devices that are authorized to be viewed by that user. I have tried to use the Device List, State Table, and GPS blocks but I am running into the same issue. I don’t think I can template in th…

Group: Summary Node

Thanks so much!

Thanks for the information @JuliaKempf. I have implemented the basic filtration of users but it would be best to have that feature, just like we have for includeAncestorsGroup.

I will keep a check on when it gets released. Thanks

@JuliaKempf @anaptfox Is this feature still in the works or rolled out? Just checking in.

@Suroor_Wijdan I don’t have much of an update here. The best option remains the Group: Summary Node for querying groups top-down, which does not provide all group details such as members, tags, device associations, etc.

We did publish a library template backed by this node that displays the groups in a collapsible tree if that is of interest you.
