# Introduction
`REG` is a command introduced with [MSNP7](../versions/msnp7.md)

It is a Notification Server command, without a request or response payload.

Renames an existing group. Replaced with [Address Book Service](../services/abservice.md)'s `ABGroupUpdate` in [MSNP13](../versions/msnp13.md).

# Client/Request
`REG TrID group-id new-group-name {0}`

Where `group-id` is the group's identification number.
With `ABCHMigrated: 1`, this is instead the group's GUID.

Where `new-group-name` is the name you want to rename `group-id` to.
Has a limit of 127 bytes (URL-encoded characters count as 3 bytes).

Where `0` is always `0`. Removed in [MSNP10](../versions/msnp10.md).

# Server/Response
`REG TrID {list-version} group-id group-name {0}`

Where `list-version` is the new List Version. Removed in [MSNP10](../versions/msnp10.md)

Where` group-name` is the updated name of the group.

# Known changes
* [MSNP10](../versions/msnp10.md): Removed unused `0` parameter, removed List Versions,
  and with `ABCHMigrated: 1`, changed group IDs to GUIDs.
* [MSNP13](../versions/msnp13.md): Removed (automatic disconnect), use [Address Book Service](../services/abservice.md)'s `ABGroupUpdate` instead.
