# /members/\{member\}/groups/\{group\}/memberdetails \[GET\]

## Description

Get a group’s [member](../../reference/glossary/member.md) details.

This service is used when a member does not belong to a [group](../../reference/glossary/group.md) but wishes to join it. It returns the member [detail](../elements/element_details.md) fields (if defined for the group) that the member needs to enter when joining.

It also returns values that have been entered before by the member, if they joined previously or the details are configured to be shared across groups.​​​​​​

## Parameters

| Name | Description | Required | Type | Default |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| role | If equal to `manager`, display all the group-specific fields for member (group manager only) | no | string |  |



## Permission

Only the member matching the request or an administrator can invoke this service, unless parameter `role=manager`.

The member does not require a membership to the specified group unless the `role=manager` is used and they are not an administrator. In that case, the member must be a manager or higher of the group.

## Response

The returned XML is as follows:

```xml
<details>
  <field position="1"
         name="[name]"
         editable="[true|false]"
         visibility="[group|member|manager]"
         [title="[title]"]
         [type="[type]"]>[value]</field>
  ...
</details>
```

Or in JSON:

```json
[
  {
    "position": number,
    "name": string,
    "editable": boolean,
    "title": string,
    "type": string,
    "visibility": string,
    "value": string
  }
]
```
