Membership4Usergroup

NAME
    Members4Usergroup - Find the users that are members of a given usergroup.

DESCRIPTION
    The Members4Usergroup LUMP API script returns a list of users that are members of a given usergroup.

PARAMETERS
  Standard
    *username* - Name of user running this CGI script. Required unless web server authentication is in use (when it is, the web server authenticated user is used instead).
    *password* - Password for the user. This is only required if the web server is not handling the user authentication and if no security hash parameter is being given.
    *security_hash* - An opaque value used to authenticate the user without requiring the password to be sent. This value is generated by a previous execution of a LUMP API script and may well be time limited. It is only required if no password or webserver authentication is done.
    *act_as* - Users in the SysAdmins group can elect to act on the behalf of other users once they are themselves authenticated. If this parameter is present it should contain the username of the user that should be switched to if this option is available and the real user has been authenticated successfully. Optional.
    *session_id* - An opaque string as far as the server is concerned that is intended solely to allow async clients to differentiate different results more easily. Optional.

  Specific for this script
    *usergroup_id* - ID for the Usergroup.

RESULTS
    The script returns an XML document in the standard LUMP response format (as documented in LUMP-XML-Response). The <returns> section's contains the XML structure following this DTD fragment:

     <!ELEMENT returns (usergroup+)>
     <!ELEMENT usergroup (id|group_name|members)>
     <!ELEMENT members (member+)>
     <!ELEMENT member (id|username|fullname|email)>
     <!ELEMENT id (#PCDATA)>
     <!ELEMENT group_name (#PCDATA)>
     <!ELEMENT username (#PCDATA)>
     <!ELEMENT fullname (#PCDATA)>
     <!ELEMENT email (#PCDATA)>

    For example:

     <response>
      <returns>
       <id>345</id>
       <group_name>Wibbling Reading List Owners</group_name>
       <members>
        <member>
         <id>2343</id>
         <username>aker</username>
         <fullname>Aker Demic</fullname>
         <email>aker.demic@example.ac.uk</email>
        </member>
        <member>
         <id>654</id>
         <username>stu</username>
         <fullname>Stu Dentelper</fullname>
         <email>stu.dentelpher@example.ac.uk</email>
        </member>
       </members>
      </returns>
     </response>
