hi

i thank you for your answer and your patience but i see here :

API Introduction with Postman

Introduction This guide is applicable for CMS 1.8 and later versions and assumes that you already have a working CMS.

Another interesting call in our test .json collection from this guide is:

it’s what i did i made the get displays api call to have the displaygroupid

because i didn’t create any displaygroup

in a post you talk about hidden displaygroupid i didn’t understand what you mean

i think i follow the guide in a right way but the layout don’t change

thanks for your patience
