Article summary

Get
/v3/projects/{project_id}/readers/groups

Returns all reader groups for the specified project. The response is currently unpaginated and returns the complete list of groups in a single response. Each group in the list includes its title and description but not its associated readers or access scope; use GET /v3/projects/{projectId}/readers/groups/{groupId} to retrieve full group details. Related endpoint: POST /v3/projects/{projectId}/readers/groups to create a new reader group.

Security
OAuth

All V3 endpoints require a Bearer token. Generate tokens in the Document360 portal under Settings > API Tokens. Tokens are project-scoped, require the customerApi scope, and do not expire by default. Tokens can be revoked at any time from the portal. Include the token in every request: Authorization: Bearer <your-token>. Alternatively, use the Authorize button below to sign in via OAuth2 Authorization Code flow with PKCE.
