The Collection of Usergroups Resource contains all of the usergroups present in the system.

Methods supported: GET

GET /api/usergroups{?skip,take}

Retrieves the collection of usergroups. The response contains a Usergroup Collection Object.

Chunking

If there are more usergroups than can fit in a single chunk, a link is included to retrieve the next chunk.
