List directory groups
GET /v1/directories/{directory_id}/groups · permission directories:read
Lists the groups the identity provider provisioned into the directory, ordered by ID: ID, external ID, display name and member count; never a member. Use a group's id as directory_group_id in POST /v1/directories/{directory_id}/role-mappings. Only forward paging exists; the cursor is bound to the directory.
