# Get one CommunityGroup

> Retrieve a single CommunityGroup record by its Id.

A **CommunityGroup** is a named subset of customers used to control who can see and contribute to conversations on the Discussion Board. Groups are created by admins and can be assigned to `CommunityThread` conversations to restrict or open participation.

Each group has an access level (`GroupAccess`) that determines visibility:

| Value            | Meaning                                                                   |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Restricted` (1) | All customers can see the group's conversations but only members can post |
| `Public` (2)     | Any customer with access to Discussion Boards can see and post            |
| `Private` (3)    | Only group members can see or post in the group's conversations           |

Groups can also be auto-generated by the system: if a `Team` has `HasCommunityGroup = true`, a group is created and its GUID stored in `TeamGuid`; if a `Course` has `HasCommunityGroup = true`, a group is created and its GUID stored in `CourseGuid`.
