Group Privacy and Visibility

Your group's privacy and visibility setting is one of three values (Open, Closed, or Private). See our support article for more details on what those settings mean.
In our v1 API, you can control the setting with the interplay of two values: privacy and public_form. To create a group with the desired setting, use the below combinations:

  • Open - privacy = 5, public_form = true
  • Closed - privacy = 5, public_form = false
  • Private - privacy = 10

You can think of public_form as a flag determining if your group will appear on the /network-groups page - that is, this flag decides if non-community members can easily find your group. In the event you're creating a Private group, public_form is ignored and your group will not appear on the /network-groups page regardless of its value.
