Groups Service

The Google Groups service allows scripts to access information about Google Groups, such as email addresses or member lists.
The GroupsApp class provides access to Google Groups information and methods like getGroups() to retrieve the groups a user is a direct member of.
The Group class represents a group object, allowing queries about members and their roles.
The Role class defines the possible roles a user can have within a group, such as owner, manager, or member.

This service allows scripts to access Google Groups. It can be used to query information such as a group's email address, or the list of groups in which the user is a direct member. Here's an example that shows how many groups the current user is a member of:

var groups = GroupsApp.getGroups();
Logger.log('You are a member of %s Google Groups.', groups.length);
