# 7.6 Add Group Member

The `addInGroup` method is used to add a new member to the Group. The member to be added in the group may belong to a different company, provided that the company and the member must already be registered with Bayun. Any existing member of the group can add a new member. The developer can enforce stricter access-mechanisms on top if desired (e.g. only group-owner or group-admin is allowed to add new members).

**Method parameters :**

* **groupId**:  Group Id of the Group.
* **groupMember** : `GroupMember` with companyName and companyEmployeeId
* **success**: Success block to be executed after member is added to the group.
* **failure**: Failure block to be executed if member could not be added to the group, returns `BayunError`.
