## Group members

Please consult the [Group Members](members.md) documentation.

## Namespaces in groups

By default, groups only get 20 namespaces at a time because the API results are paginated.

To get more (up to 100), pass the following as an argument to the API call:
```
/groups?per_page=100
```

And to switch pages add:
```
/groups?per_page=100&page=2
```
