An 'add to group' script for the Discourse Automation

[nathank (Nathan Kershaw)]

That is handy, and meets my 1. and 3. with aplomb!

All that remains is 2. - which I note has recently been requested by someone else:

Add script to add user to user group

There is currently a script in the Automation plugin to add users to a group based on a custom field. We would like a script to add users to a group, when they’re added to another group. The scenario is this: The Discourse Experts plugin expects you to only have one user group designated for “experts”. We are running an ambassador program and have two tiers of ambassadors—both of which are “experts” in this case. We would like to say, anyone added to “Ambassadors” or “Expert Ambassadors” also …

This of course could be worked around by having a badge with SQL that picks up on the group membership, and then a script that then assigns the other. But that is a bit messy / clunky and results in a collection of redundant badges.
