# Retrieve Group Members

> Retrieve Group Members — CometChat documentation.

## Retrieve the List of Group Members

In order to fetch the list of groups members for a group, you can use the `GroupMembersRequest` class. To use this class i.e to create an object of the `GroupMembersRequest` class, you need to use the `GroupMembersRequestBuilder` class. The `GroupMembersRequestBuilder` class allows you to set the parameters based on which the groups are to be fetched.

The `GroupMembersRequestBuilder` class allows you to set the below parameters:

The `GUID` of the group for which the members are to be fetched must be specified in the constructor of the `GroupMembersRequestBuilder` class.

### Set Limit

This method sets the limit i.e. the number of members that should be fetched in a single iteration.

  <Tab title="Java">
    ```java theme={null}
    GroupMembersRequest groupMembersRequest = new GroupMembersRequest.GroupMembersRequestBuilder(GUID)
    .setLimit(limit)
    .build();
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

### Set Search Keyword

This method allows you to set the search string based on which the group members are to be fetched.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Java">
    ```java theme={null}
    GroupMembersRequest groupMembersRequest = new GroupMembersRequest.GroupMembersRequestBuilder(GUID)
    .setSearchKeyword("abc")
    .build();
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

### Set Scopes

This method allows you to fetch group members based on the specified scopes.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Java">
    ```java theme={null}
    List<String> scopes = new ArrayList<>();
    scopes.add("admin");
    scopes.add("moderator");
    GroupMembersRequest groupMembersRequest = new GroupMembersRequest.GroupMembersRequestBuilder(GUID)
    .setScopes(scopes)
    .build();
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

Finally, once all the parameters are set to the builder class, you need to call the `build()` method to get the object of the `GroupMembersRequest` class.

Once you have the object of the `GroupMembersRequest` class, you need to call the `fetchNext()` method. Calling this method will return a list of `GroupMember` objects containing N number of members depending on the limit set.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Java">
    ```java theme={null}
    private GroupMembersRequest groupMembersRequest = null;
    private String GUID = "GUID";
    private int limit = 30;

    groupMembersRequest = new GroupMembersRequest.GroupMembersRequestBuilder(GUID).setLimit(limit).build();

    groupMembersRequest.fetchNext(new CometChat.CallbackListener<List<GroupMember>>(){
         @Override
         public void onSuccess(List<GroupMember> list) {
            Log.d(TAG, "Group Member list fetched successfully: " + list.size());
          }
         @Override
         public void onError(CometChatException e) {
          Log.d(TAG, "Group Member list fetching failed with exception: " + e.getMessage());
         }
                
     });
    ```
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Kotlin">
    ```kotlin theme={null}
    var groupMembersRequest:GroupMembersRequest?=null
    val GUID:String="GUID"
    val limit:Int=30

    groupMembersRequest=GroupMembersRequest.GroupMembersRequestBuilder(GUID).setLimit(limit).build()

    groupMembersRequest?.fetchNext(object:CometChat.CallbackListener<List<GroupMember>>(){
      override fun onSuccess(p0: List<GroupMember>?){
        Log.d(TAG, "Group Member list fetched successfully: " + p0?.size)
      }
      override fun onError(p0: CometChatException?) {
        Log.d(TAG, "Group Member list fetching failed with exception: " + p0?.message)
      }
    })
    ```
