# September 23, 2026

## Added

### Groups report their channel

Each entry from `GET /api/v1/groups` now carries **`channel`** — `whatsapp` or `imessage`, the same value its messages carry — so you can tell which channel's rules apply to a group before you send into it.

```json
{ "id": "grp_123", "channel": "whatsapp", "name": "Planning bday party", "createdAt": "2026-09-01T10:22:04.000Z" }
```

`dial group list` shows it as a column. This is an added field on an existing object, so nothing that reads groups today is affected.

## Changed

### Groups have their own section in the API reference

List groups moved from **Messages** to a new **Groups** section. The endpoint is unchanged; its old reference URL redirects.
