You can use the AddUserToGroup function toadd participants to the project. Specify the projectID as the toType parameterand then either “Coordinators”, “Members” or “Guests”for the toName parameter.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Kevin! I am using AddUserToGroup() method like this:int retUserVal = users.AddUserToGroup("Jeff", projID, "Members");It couldn't add the participant to the project. I have added "Jeff" as a user to DefaultGroup. My program is giving the following error:ErrorNo:400202StatusMessage:Could not get the specified user or group.Would you please let me know where I am making the mistake? Thanks in advance.Thanks

Doesn’t look like anything isincorrect. Double check that the projID is the positive value and not thenegative ID of the project volume.

Thanks Kevin! I am using AddUserToGroup() method like this:

int retUserVal = users.AddUserToGroup("Jeff", projID, "Members");
It couldn't add the participant to the project. I have added "Jeff" as a user to DefaultGroup. My program is giving the following error:

ErrorNo:400202
StatusMessage:Could not get the specified user or group.

Would you please let me know where I am making the mistake? Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot Kevin! You are right I was getting negative projId value. I fixed that error. Now it's working fine. Thanks again for your help.

Hi,I too getting the same error message when i tried to add a user to a group when calling the below functionAddUserToGroup("user id",LAPI_USERS.GROUP, "GroupName");It throws an error number 400202 without any error description.Can you please advise me what could be the issue?

A 400202 means "Could not get user or group."Either the username or groupname you provided in your argument list doesn't exist in that particular Livelink system.If you wish to see why your particular username/groupname is not found, you can check using a SQL client outside of Livelink.The SQL query used for the username lookup in a system not utilizing Livelink domains is:select * from KUAF where Type=0 and SpaceID=0 and Name='USERNAMEYOUPROVIDE' and Deleted=0The SQL used for locating a group in a system not utilizing Livelink domains only differs slightly from the above:select * from KUAF where Type=YOURTYPE and SpaceID=0 and Name='USERNAMEYOUPROVIDE' and Deleted=0The YOURTYPE value is the integer value of the toType parameter you've passed in.I would recommend trying the above queries to see where your issue could be. If you are using a case-sensitive database, your username/groupname must match exactly.
