Create a Group
Creates a new group in your Fivetran account. IMPORTANT: Groups and destinations are mapped 1:1 to each other. We do this mapping using the group's id value that we automatically generate when you create a group, and the destination's group_id value that you specify when you create a destination. This means that you must create a group in your Fivetran account before you can create a destination in it.
