When managing group access via the Control Panel you can set access levels to Team (with or without Internet), Announcement-only, and Restricted. You can also set it to Custom and separately control the ability to send email and view the membership list. However the Provisioning APIs GroupEntry only contains a 'emailPermission' setting with values Owner, Member, Domain, Anyone. Does this mean that Custom settings are not available via the Provisioning API?

Hi Jon,

The Provisioning API doesn't support those custom settings for Groups, however, we are aware of the limitations and already working on making them available via an API.
Please stay tuned! ;)

Thanks for the confirmation. As it happens I can manage with the standard
settings for what I'm planning, but it's helpful to know that I'm not
missing anything.
