Description

While there are lots of highly detailed methods of adding/manipulating rooms and groups via SOAP/REST, there seems to be no way to add a group (organization) to a room by these means.

The function addRoomWithModeration allows users to set rooms to private and, in its documentation, warns "use true if you don't deal with different Organizations," though there is no way to subsequently "deal with different organizations" without going into the GUI. As this is fundamental to the usage of both room and group functionality, this gap seems to seriously diminish the usefulness of other well-functioning SOAP/REST features for rooms and groups.
