Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

The API documentation lists: https://actualbudget.org/docs/api/reference#getcategorygroups

getCategoryGroups
getCategoryGroups()  Promise<CategoryGroup[]>
Get all category groups.

But this is not exposed in the Node API. The methods.js file has the other methods for category groups, but no way to list existing ones.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Add a getCategoryGroups method to this: e745a4073b/packages/api/methods.js (L122-L132)
