Currently, the process to obtain group information is extremely limited. For avatars, pulling the UUID via llGetObjectDetails with a list entry given by llGetAttachedList is the only way. Objects themselves being only able to natively return the group UUID via llGetObjectDetails, but obtaining additional details about the group is not possible with any existing function. The only way to pull the name of the group an avatar/object is set to is via the group's webpage which requires running a HTML request, with other things such as the group's texture being pulled the same way.

Due to these reasons, trying to set up systems which interface with groups has been largely unintuitive and unreliable beyond a simple true-or-false check. The goal of this request is to create simple functions that can pull group information directly ingame without having to call upon external resources, in addition to adding ways to pull the specific information of a group which there is currently no function for. Examples:

string llGetGroupKey(key UUID) - Returns the group UUID active on object or avatar.

string llGetGroupName(key Group_UUID) - Returns a string that is the group's name

string llGetGroupTexture(key Group_UUID) - Returns the UUID that is the texture set to the group.

string llGetGroupDesc(key Group_UUID) - Returns a string that is the description of the group.

integer llGetGroupRating(key Group_UUID) - Returns 0 if group is General, or 1 if the rating is set to Moderate.

list llGetGroupDetails(key UUID, list flags) - Returns a list containing the information request in 'flags'. Valid flags would be GROUP_KEY, GROUP_NAME, GROUP_TEXTURE, GROUP_DESC, GROUP_RATING.
