How to get a list of all user groups in Modx Revolution

Question

Trying to get a list of group names from modx revolution, digging through the API and docs, but not having much luck finding a function that does this.

How can I get a list of groups [names & ids] in a snippet from a modx revolution instance>?

Answer 1

<?php
$where = array();
$userGroups = $modx->getCollection('modUserGroup', $where);
foreach ($userGroups as $userGroup) {
    print $userGroup->get('name');
}
