# Get Group Hierarchy

`POST /getGroupHierarchy`

Use the Get Group Hierarchy endpoint to retrieve a group's hierarchy, either a root group or a non-root group. This endpoint returns only the groups, not the associated accounts. By default, the endpoint returns all of the subgroups that are downstream of the specified group. Pass a value for `subGroupLevel` to specify how many subgroup levels to retrieve. See <a href="doc:creating-a-corporate-hierarchy" target="_blank">Creating a Corporate Hierarchy</a> for instructions on using this endpoint.
