You can use Conversation Web Service requests to request groups or lists of groups from the Oracle Endeca Server data store.
The Conversation Web Service returns groups for those types of queries that return refinements (standard or managed attributes). Any attributes returned from the Conversation Web Service as refinements are returned as part of groups.
This section provides examples for how to retrieve groups and lists of groups. For additional information about the Conversation Web Service WSDL, see the Oracle Endeca Server API Reference.
