Finding a Group ID
Each Group has a unique Group ID (a 24-character alphanumeric string). You will need this ID for bulk operations like CSV user imports, API calls, and some integrations.
How to find a Group ID:
- Navigate to Admin > Admin Utilities > Core Fields > Groups
- Find your Group in the table. The ID is shown in the Group ID column (for example:
6840cd3b2d6780393039c2) - To copy it, click the three-dot menu at the end of the row and select Copy
When you need it:
- CSV user imports — to add or remove users from a Group via CSV, the Group column must contain the Group ID, not the Group name
- API operations — any Continu API call that targets a specific Group
Group IDs are stable and do not change if the Group name is edited.
