# Feature

## New REST endpoint */groups*

Introduced a new REST endpoint ***/groups*** to support group names containing special characters where the group name is sent as a query parameter. The existing endpoint ***/getGroups/{groupName}*** does not handle special characters correctly, resulting in failures when such names are used. The new endpoint resolves this limitation by accepting the group name as a query parameter.
