# POST /v2/groupItems

`POST /v2/groupItems`

Creates a group item.

## Query parameters

- `onBehalfOfContentOwner` string

## Request body

- GroupItem — A group item.
  - `id` string — The ID that YouTube uses to uniquely identify the `channel`, `video`, `playlist`, or `asset` resource that is included in the group. Note that this ID refers specifically to the inclusion of that resource in a particular group and is different than the channel ID, video ID, playlist ID, or asset ID that uniquely identifies the resource itself. The `resource.id` property's value specifies the unique channel, video, playlist, or asset ID.
  - `errors` Errors — Request Error information. The presence of an error field signals that the operation has failed.
    - `code` 'BAD_REQUEST' | 'FORBIDDEN' | 'NOT_FOUND' | 'CONFLICT' | 'GONE' | 'PRECONDITION_FAILED' | 'INTERNAL_ERROR' | 'SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE' — Global error code. Deprecated and ignored. Set custom error codes in ErrorProto.domain and ErrorProto.code instead.
    - `requestId` string — Request identifier generated by the service, which can be used to identify the error in the logs
    - `error` ErrorProto[] — Specific error description and codes
      - `domain` string — Error domain. RoSy services can define their own domain and error codes. This should normally be the name of an enum type, such as: gdata.CoreErrorDomain
      - `argument` string[] — Error arguments, to be used when building user-friendly error messages given the error domain and code. Different error codes require different arguments.
      - `location` string — Location of the error, as specified by the location type. If location_type is PATH, this should be a path to a field that's relative to the request, using FieldPath notation (net/proto2/util/public/field_path.h). Examples: authenticated_user.gaia_id resource.address[2].country
      - `code` string — Error code in the error domain. This should correspond to a value of the enum type whose name is in domain. See the core error domain in error_domain.proto.
      - `locationType` 'PATH' | 'OTHER' | 'PARAMETER'
      - `debugInfo` string — Debugging information, which should not be shared externally.
      - `externalErrorMessage` string — A short explanation for the error, which can be shared outside Google. Please set domain, code and arguments whenever possible instead of this error message so that external APIs can build safe error messages themselves. External messages built in a RoSy interface will most likely refer to information and concepts that are not available externally and should not be exposed. It is safer if external APIs can understand the errors and decide what the error message should look like.
  - `kind` string — Identifies the API resource's type. The value will be `youtube#groupItem`.
  - `etag` string — The Etag of this resource.
  - `resource` GroupItemResource
    - `id` string — The channel, video, playlist, or asset ID that YouTube uses to uniquely identify the item that is being added to the group.
    - `kind` string — Identifies the type of resource being added to the group. Valid values for this property are: * `youtube#channel` * `youtube#playlist` * `youtube#video` * `youtubePartner#asset`
  - `groupId` string — The ID that YouTube uses to uniquely identify the group that contains the item.
