## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.anthropic.com`
- URL: `https://api.anthropic.com/v1/organizations/rbac_groups`
- Auth: none declared

Create an RBAC Group in the Claude Enterprise tenant. Groups created via the API have source type `"direct"`.

The RBAC Groups API is available to Claude Enterprise organizations only.

## Headers

## Request body

- CreateRbacGroupParams
  - `name` string, required: Name of the RBAC Group. Not uniqueness-enforced.

## Response `200`

Successful Response

  - `id` string, required: ID of the RBAC Group.
  - `name` string, required: Name of the RBAC Group. Not uniqueness-enforced.
  - `role_ids` string[], nullable, required: RBAC Role IDs attached to this RBAC Group. Role attachment is managed in the admin settings and is read-only on this API. `null` means role data was temporarily unavailable — retry to distinguish from an empty list.
