Service Groups

Service Sessions can be collected together in a group to aid in administrative tasks. A convenience class called ServiceGroup is provided in the API, which enables you to create a Service Group and later create new Service Sessions within the Service Group. Each new Service Session created within a Service Group is automatically assigned Description.SERVICE_GROUP_ID, a generated random unique ID for that group.

To view and maintain Service Groups, select Services > Services > Service Group Admin. The Service Group Admin page enables you to take actions on an entire group of Services at once, similar to the way you can act on Services on the Services > Services > Service Session Admin Page. For example, you could cancel a Service Group, which would cancel all of the Service Sessions within that Service Group.
