PUT /api/usergroups/:id
Update a user group

User groups linked to external groups (LDAP) are automatically synced with these groups on update. Remember this synchronization will remove any LDAP users manually added to the Foreman user group. Only LDAP users in the external groups will remain. Internal users can be added or removed freely.

Examples

PUT /api/usergroups/1-usergroup257
{
  "usergroup": {
    "name": "test_usergroup",
    "user_ids": [
