Veeam One API - How to Get the VMs Inside a Business View Group

[Rahanoi]

As far as I've seen the API does not support retrieving the members of a virtual machine group under business view. The closest call is businessview/groups/{groupId}, but that just returns info about the group itself, not the members. Is there any way to get the members?

Hello Rahanoi,
There is no way currently to get the members of the Business View Group, but this is considered for future releases of the API.

What is the use-case, how are you using the APIs, etc. Really curious to comprehend more.

Thank you!

Hello Jorge.

I need to ensure that all VMs under a given business view group match an external list. My goal is to write a script that compares the VMs currently matched in the group against a master csv file. However, currently I can't, since there's no way to retrieve group contents through the API.

Thank you Rahanoi,
Definetely in our radar for future releases, let me check if this information can be retrieved from somewhere else, I will update the post tomorrow.
