I don't see any mention of response format on this or the sub-pages - maybe I'm just missing it.
I do have an email exchange from August 2013 in which iam-support stated:
Currently the only response format is XHTML. We have cadrs in our backlog for XML and JSON, but that work hasn't been prioritized yet.
Is that still up-to-date information? Either way, it seems worth "publishing" that information in this wiki space.

I have not had the opportunity do do much development with the groups
service. However, many of the responses will return plain xml. Try:
Accept: text/xml
Let me know if these would be helpful. I'll try to get them documented.
Until we go to 'v3' xhtml has to stay the default format.

That works. I don't mind including headers in my request, so changing the default response format isn't particularly significant for my usage. Now, if you wanted to add JSON, that would be lovely, but I can live with xml.
I suppose these comments probably do the job, but
I think you guys should consider adding a brief paragraph describing the supported formats to the actual documentation(update: seeing that you already indicated you would add docs when you have time). I assume I won't be the last person to wonder.Thanks for the reply!
