# Facility groups

Facility groups can be used to mark individual facilities as belonging to a specific group. A facility can be part of several facility groups.

Facilities can be assigned to a group by:

1. Creating a facility group via [API](https://fulfillmenttools.github.io/fulfillmenttools-api-reference-ui/#get-/api/facilitygroups)
2. Referencing the ID of the facilities in the respective facility group

Facility groups can be used, for example, to define [sales prices](/documentation/by-pillar/global-inventory-hub/articles/article-attributes.md#sales-price-with-currency) for certain facility groups.

## Create a facility group

To create a facility group, send a `POST` request to the following endpoint with a JSON body.

```http
POST https://ocff-{projectId}.api.fulfillmenttools.com/api/facilitygroups
```

```json
{
  "tenantFacilityGroupId": "US_WC",
  "facilityRefs": [
    "871c1620-3757-4242-9a8d-5d20b81cadde_96358521",
    "bc6fd1f7-cbbf-41da-938d-01a68d90a926_0001a6c5",
    "bc6fd1f7-cbbf-41da-938d-01a68d90a926_003fcc05"
  ],
  "nameLocalized": {
    "de_DE": "US Westen",
    "en_US": "US West Coast"
  }
}
```

A successful request returns a `201 Created` response with the created facility group object in the body:

```json
{
    "version": 1,
    "nameLocalized": {
        "de_DE": "US Westen",
        "en_US": "US West Coast"
    },
    "tenantFacilityGroupId": "US_WC",
    "facilityRefs": [
        "871c1620-3757-4242-9a8d-5d20b81cadde_96358521",
        "bc6fd1f7-cbbf-41da-938d-01a68d90a926_0001a6c5",
        "bc6fd1f7-cbbf-41da-938d-01a68d90a926_003fcc05"
    ],

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fulfillmenttools.com/documentation/getting-started/facilities/facility-groups.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
