issue with sending a message to groups

[jonabert]

The problem

when I copy paste the instruction from the API documentation to send a message to a group by doing curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"message": "test 123", "number": "+YYYYYYY", "recipients": ['MYGROUP']}' 'http://127.0.0.1:8091/v2/send' I get invalid request {"error":"Couldn't process request - invalid request"}

Please use a double quote (") instead of a single quote (') when specifying the group.

I'm able to reproduce this issue on ARM (Mac) using the latest docker image (v0.91) as of this writing:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"message": "test 123", "number": "+1555######", "recipients": ["group.longAlphanumericGroupStringHere"]}' 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/v2/send'

It returns the timestamp JSON object {"timestamp":"1737500552073"}, (emulating success) but does not deliver the group message. As a sanity check of my configuration, I am able to send messages to individual users, create groups, and list groups.

I have this same issue as well. It works on individual numbers but not on group IDs.

Ditto - seem to be able to do most tasks except DM groups. This was previously working fine too (yesterday).
