title: 2016: Operation not supported in group chats | API Docs
description: This operation only works in a 1:1 chat.
---

This operation is not supported in group chats. This is an HTTP 409 error. Location requests are the common case — they only work in a 1:1 chat.

## Troubleshooting

- Open the 1:1 chat with the intended recipient and retry there
- Check `group` on the chat before calling — it is `true` for group chats
