Objective is to share a 'User Group' with itself. Following code works fine to share a 'User' with a 'User Group', but not for sharing 'User Group'.

  UserShare groupShr = new UserShare();
  groupShr.UserId = toShareId;//works for ID of User, not for ID of User Group
  groupShr.UserOrGroupId = spaceGroupId;
  groupShr.UserAccessLevel = 'Read';
  groupShrList.add(groupShr);

  insert groupShrList;

Exception thrown if above code tries to share user group is FIELD_INTEGRITY_EXCEPTION, User ID: id value of incorrect type: 00GF0000004ucwlMAA: [UserId]: Trigger.TriggerName: line 30, column 1

Is it possible to share user group?

The documentation clearly states that the userId has to be the Id of the user being shared. So you cannot set it to the groupId.

The other work around is: you get the users in the group, then itereate thru all the users and then share the records.

  • Yes, User ID has to be ID of the User & not of the group. That's why the question- is it even possible to share user group? Aug 19, 2014 at 6:55
