Restore site system groups

fedorow — Sun, 17 Sep 2023 20:58:27 GMT

Hi! There is site without system groups. For example, the test site in default model have next groups:

GROUP_site_swsdp
GROUP_site_swsdp_SiteManager
GROUP_site_swsdp_SiteCollaborator
GROUP_site_swsdp_SiteContributor
GROUP_site_swsdp_SiteConsumer

and their deleted. I can create it from Share UI or REST API but new groups created in the APP.DEFAULT and AUTH.ALF zones. It means they are in the group browser in default list. I want to move it in the system ALF. SHARE zone.

How to change the parent relation cm:inZone from ALF.DEFAULT to ALF.SHARE? Or how to recreate deleted Groups in ALF.SHARE zone?

Thanks!

You can specify a ZONE using the REST API, right?

Angel thanks, but I can't.

First of all there is the comment about APP.DEFAULT zone will be created:

Second, I tryed to specify the zone in groupBodyCreate

{
  "id": "test",
  "displayName": "test",
  "parentIds": [
    "GROUP_site_swsdp"
  ],
  "zones": [
    "APP.SHARE",
    "AUTH.ALF"
  ]
}

and it is did not work. The group was created in APP.DEFAULT zone. Here is the respond:

{
  "entry": {
    "isRoot": false,
    "displayName": "test",
    "id": "GROUP_test",
    "zones": [
      "APP.DEFAULT",
      "AUTH.ALF"
    ]
  }
}

The 'include' field did not describe creation, and just format the response. I checked it too. Then I try to add some thing more then just "zones" it gave me an error.

Am I do something wrong?
