Using the API to move a device to a different static group? And can group IDs be seen in the UI?

In case anyone else runs across a similar basic problem, I was able to find the group ID on the UI, on the group properties, system.deviceGroupId .... and I was able to basically do a replace on a list and patch back the hostGroupIds after doing a replace if certain things were found in the sysinfo. The code is ugly, I'm super new to python, but hey. :)/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" />
