For example, a user can create a group for a project team by specifying the instance name, group name, description, and participant phone numbers.

Use Case Examples

  1. Creating a project team group by providing the instance name, group name, optional description, and a list of participant phone numbers separated by commas.
  2. Automating the creation of customer support groups in a communication platform.
