# Retrieve Groups from eRoom

To retrieve groups from eRoom

1. Open the OmniGroupServer configuration file.

2. In the `[Repositories]` section, create a repository to contain the groups. For example:

       [Repositories]
       Number=1
       0=eRoom

3. Create a section to contain the task details and set the following configuration parameters:

   `GroupServerLibrary` | The full path (including the file name) to the library that allows the group server to access the repository. Use the `ogs_eroom` library.
   `eRoomBuiltInGroups` | A Boolean that specifies whether to include built-in groups.
   `eRoomCommunityNames` | A comma-separated list of eRoom communities from which users and groups must be retrieved.
   `eRoomServer` | The IP address or name of the machine that hosts the eRoom server.
   `eRoomXmlUrl` | The URL used to send eRoom requests using the eRoom XML Query Language, eXQL.

   For example:

       [eRoom]
       GroupServerLibrary=ogs_eroom
       eRoomBuiltInGroups=false
       eRoomCommunityNames=eRoom Members,ACommunity
       eRoomServer=12.34.56.78
       eRoomXmlUrl=http://12.34.56.78/eRoomXML/

   For a complete list of configuration parameters that you can use to configure this task, refer to the OmniGroupServer Reference

4. Save and close the OmniGroupServer configuration file.
