Thanks for sharing!
Will this generate a welcome email (as if you had added them through the UI by going to: site permissions > groups > add user)?
Also, could you confirm how I would need to adapt this to remove a user from the group instead please? (I was looking for something like “/add” in the URI, which I could swap for “/remove” but couldn’t see anything like that).
Thanks again!

Hi Martin,
No, that won’t generate a welcome e-mail like in the interface.
You can use a POST request with X-HTTP-Method DELETE in combination with the id of the user (via the getbyid method):
_api/web/sitegroups/getbyname('Custom SharePoint Group')/users/getbyid(18)I will share this sample in a new blog later today.
