      1. Create a course with groups enabled (visible, not forced), create a forum activity with visible groups
      2. Enrol a user as student in the course
      3. As admin, enable "Mobile services": Plugins ► Web Services ► Mobile
      4. Create a Token for the student user:
        • Click on Site administration ► Plugins ► Web services ► Manage tokens
      5. Next, you can do a CURL REST call simulating a WS client with the student user.
        • You need to replace the wstoken, cmid (with the forum course module id) and the URL of your moodle instance

          curl 'http://localhost/m/stable_master/webservice/rest/server.php?moodlewsrestformat=json' --data 'cmid=0&wsfunction=core_group_get_activity_groupmode&wstoken= ffbe3a3002f235bf9d01fd9369e10b66'

      6. Confirm that you receive a 2 (VISIBLEGROUPS) as response in the groupmode field
      7. Change the forum group mode to separate
      8. Run again the curl command, you should receive now a 1 as response
      9. Try to run the command using a cmid of an existing course module in a course you don't have access, you will receive an exception
