Batch add students to a group

I want to add multiple students to a group using api request. 

The documentation indicated that the type of the request should be put, and the url would be: 

/api/v1/groups/:group_id
This works well when I add only one student, but doesn't work for multiple students. 

I am using Laravel framework and Guzzle as the client. Here is the method that I am using: 

 

public static function getResponse(string $type, string $url, array $form_params)
{
   $client = new Client;

   $response = $client->$type($url, [
      'headers' => [
         'Authorization' => 'Bearer ' . env('API_KEY'),
      ],
      'form_params' => $form_params
   ]);

   return $response;
}

Correct Answer

Thank you Kona,

I did join the Canvas Developers group. I also solved this specific problem. The documentation was a bit confusing(at least for me). I thought the parameter name was members[ ], but I finally had to remove the brackets. So, instead of "members[ ]", I needed to have: "members". That was all.

Thanks again, and sorry for asking technical question in a non-technical environment.
