API - adding a contact to a group

[holmesg]

I found the "legacy" way to do this:

    $params = array(
                    'contact_id.1' => $contact_id,
                    'group_id'     => 72
                    );
    $result = civicrm_group_contact_add( $params );


But that function is not found. PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function civicrm_group_contact_add() in *********/sites/all/modules/rules/modules/php.eval.inc(146)

What's the current way to do it?  I can't find the actual functions listed in the current API reference ...

Hi,

The easiest is probably the api explorer running on your civi, it lists all the entities and generates the code.

Code: [Select]

$params = array(
  'sequential' => 1,
  'contact_id' => 42,
  'group_id' => 3,
  ''
);
$result = civicrm_api3('GroupContact', 'create', $params);

That did the trick ... thanks!
