Modifying group membership

The membership action changes user group membership. When adding or removing a user, use either user_id or user_name, but not both as shown below. There is an additional field that can be used with the membership action in the user API:

json

Contains two arrays, add and remove, which have information on each membership change.

         },
         {
             "user_name":"USER2",
             "usergroup_name":"USERGROUP2"
         }
     ],
