Hello

I'm using the following chained api call:

civicrm_api("Contact","get", array ('version' => 3,'sequential' => '1', 'contact_sub_type' => 'Student', 'api.groupContact.get' => array('group_id' => 4, 'status' => 'Added')));
I would think that it should return only students in group 4, but it ignores the 'group_id' argument and returns a result like:
...
            [4] => Array
                (
                    [contact_id] => 25660
                    [contact_type] => Individual
                    [contact_sub_type] => Array
                        (
                            [0] => Student
                        )

                    [sort_name] => Lastname, Mathilde
                    [display_name] => Mathilde Lastname
                    [do_not_email] => 0
...
                    [id] => 25660
                    [api.groupContact.get] => Array
                        (
                            [is_error] => 0
                            [version] => 3
                            [count] => 2
                            [values] => Array
                                (
                                    [0] => Array
                                        (
                                            [id] => 91514
                                            [group_id] => 2
                                            [title] => Some group title
                                            [visibility] => User and User Admin Only
                                            [is_hidden] => 0
                                            [in_date] => 2014-11-06 10:06:46
                                            [in_method] => API
                                        )

                                    [1] => Array
                                        (
                                            [id] => 88432
                                            [group_id] => 10
                                            [title] => Some other group title
                                            [visibility] => Public Pages
                                            [is_hidden] => 0
                                            [in_date] => 2014-11-04 09:54:01
                                            [in_method] => API
                                        )

                                )

                        )

                )

Is this as it should be? (this is on a civicrm 4.4 installation)

If I switch the contact get call and group get call, so I do it the other way around (the contact get is nested inside the group get), it would probably do what I want. But that's only in my unique case here, because I don't really have any contacts in group 4 who aren't students.

That works perfectly - thanks Coleman!

For reference:
If I go to the api explorer and choose entity Contact and action getfields, I see all the fields that I can use with a contact get call (I guess). But I don't see "group" as one of them.
- where do I see a complete list of all the fields I can use in a contact get call, including the fields which aren't in the contact table in the database (eg group - and email is another example) ?
