How to allow all users to execute search API call for group members info

Question

I'm having an issue with SharePoint 2013, In js file deployed on search page I need to check the users group by this API

/_api/web/sitegroups/getbyname('X')/Users 

The problem is that the users don't have permission to make this api call, is there any solution to allow all users to perform this specific call?

Answer 1

You need to set the View membership of the group to Everyone.

Go to your SharePoint group > Group settings and then set Who can view the membership of the group? to Everyone and save the settings.
