Create a group
/v1/groups in the Groups API.
curl -X POST https://api.subscriby.net/v1/groups \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $SUBSCRIBY_TOKEN" \ -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "team_id": "a83f0d51-4c92-4b7e-8615-2fd9e70a3c86", "code": "billing-team", "name": "Billing Team", "permissions": ["project-subscription:view-any"] }'Choose the code deliberately.
codeis unique within the team and cannot be changed afterwards: permissions are addressed by it. Onlynameand the permission set are mutable.
A group starts empty. Add people with the members endpoint; membership is deliberately not a field here, because replacing who is in a group and naming it are different operations with different consequences.
Answers 201 with the group and its permissions. Emits group.created.
Requires ability
The token must hold this ability, or the call is refused with 403.
Fires one event
Delivered to every endpoint subscribed to it once the change is made.
MCP tool
Runs the same action from an agent, behind the same ability.
Idempotent
Send the header on every call; the same key replays the original response for 24 hours.
Authorization
bearerToken A personal access token minted on the dashboard under Settings, then Tokens, sent as Authorization: Bearer sbt_live_…. The token carries the abilities each endpoint lists under Requires ability and is frozen to one team.
In: header
Header Parameters
A key unique to this operation, such as a fresh UUID. The same key replays the original 2xx response for 24 hours (with Idempotent-Replay: true), so a retry after a timeout never repeats the write; the same key with a different body is refused with 409.
uuidRequest body
JSONWhat the request carriesRequiredapplication/json
A group's team, code, name and permissions. On create team_id, code and name are required; on update team_id and code are prohibited (a group is neither moved nor renamed by code) and name and permissions are optional. Membership is not set here but with the members endpoint.
Responses
201Createdapplication/json
The group resource as a 201.
400Bad requestIDEMPOTENCY_KEY_MISSINGapplication/json
Every write needs an Idempotency-Key header. Send a fresh UUID per distinct operation.
401UnauthorizedAUTHENTICATION_REQUIREDapplication/json
The request carries no bearer token, or one that is revoked, malformed, or minted for another environment (an sbt_test_ token on production).
403ForbiddenTOKEN_MISSING_ABILITYapplication/json
The token is valid but does not carry the ability this endpoint requires; error.context.required_ability names the one to grant. An endpoint that also checks who owns a row or which tier the account is on answers FORBIDDEN, TEAM_TIER_REQUIRED or CONNECTOR_TIER_REQUIRED with the same status, and says so in its own description.
On this endpoint: TEAM_TIER_REQUIRED: below the Growth tier; nothing changes.
404Not foundRESOURCE_NOT_FOUNDapplication/json
When team_id is not one of the caller's teams.
409ConflictIDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSEDapplication/json
The key was already used in the last 24 hours with a different request body.
422Validation failedVALIDATION_FAILEDapplication/json
The payload broke a rule, and error.fields maps each offending key to its messages. A refusal from the domain, such as a plan that cannot go on sale or a member who cannot be removed, uses the same code with error.message saying why and no fields.
On this endpoint: VALIDATION_FAILED: when a group with that code already exists in the team; error.context.code names it.
425Too earlyIDEMPOTENCY_REPLAY_IN_PROGRESSapplication/json
The first request with this key is still running; retry in a few seconds and the original response is replayed.
429Too many requestsRATE_LIMITEDapplication/json
The token has spent its 300 requests a minute or 10,000 an hour; Retry-After says when the next one is accepted.
