DYNAMIC: STATIC:

## Discussion

Discussion A group’s groupType is set to one of the following:  |   |   |  Discussion The two types differ in how systemStatus behaves after creation or update. A STATIC group’s membership is already known at the moment you supply locationIds, so systemStatus is VALID immediately. A DYNAMIC group’s membership depends on evaluating rules, so systemStatus starts at PENDING and transitions to VALID once that evaluation completes. Wait for systemStatus: VALID before referencing a DYNAMIC group in campaign targeting.
