404 — a workgroup with this id does not exist:

  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "ENTITY_NOT_FOUND",
    "message": "workgroup 999999 not found"
  }
}
```

## Errors

| HTTP | Code | Description |
|------|-----|---------|
| 404 | `ENTITY_NOT_FOUND` | A workgroup with the specified `id` was not found |
| 401 | `MISSING_API_KEY` | `X-Api-Key` was not passed |
| 401 | `INVALID_API_KEY` | An invalid key was passed |
| 403 | `SCOPE_DENIED` | The key is missing the `sonet_group` scope |

Full list of common API errors — [Errors](/docs/errors).

## Known specifics

- A non-numeric `id` (for example `abc`) returns `404 ENTITY_NOT_FOUND`, not `400` — take this into account when handling validation errors on the client.
- To change a workgroup's subject, pass a numeric `subjectId` in [`PATCH /v1/workgroups/:id`](./update.md). The `subjectName` field is read-only — an attempt to pass it in the PATCH body returns `400 READONLY_FIELD`.
