# Create contact group

`POST /api/v1/groups`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.blueticked.com`
- URL: `https://app.blueticked.com/api/v1/groups`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Create a static contact list, then fill it via the members endpoint.

business_id is required when the workspace manages multiple businesses; groups never mix client lists.

Add members with PUT /api/v1/groups/{id}/members (body: contact_ids, max 500 per call); remove with DELETE on the same path.

Adding a contact from a different business is skipped, not an error. The response reports added / already_members / skipped honestly.
