Details of a group

Get all details of a group. This endpoint can be accessed without authentication if the group is publicly accessible. In case the user that requests is admin of the group, it will return the runners_token for the group too.

GET /groups/:id

Parameters:

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`id`	integer/string	yes	The ID or URL-encoded path of the group owned by the authenticated user.
`with_custom_attributes`	boolean	no	Include custom attributes in response (admins only).
`with_projects`	boolean	no	Include details from projects that belong to the specified group (defaults to `true`). (Deprecated, will be removed in API v5. To get the details of all projects within a group, use the list a group's projects endpoint.)

NOTE: Note: The projects and shared_projects attributes in the response are deprecated and will be removed in API v5. To get the details of all projects within a group, use either the list a group's projects or the list a group's shared projects endpoint.

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/groups/4"

This endpoint returns:

All projects and shared projects in GitLab 12.5 and earlier.
A maximum of 100 projects and shared projects in GitLab 12.6 and later. To get the details of all projects within a group, use the list a group's projects endpoint instead.
