## Remarks

- Requires `change_metadata_structure` and `license_allows_modifications`, and read access to the
  group. `object_type` must be 0 (Document), as in
  [AddDocClassGroup](https://developer.m-files.com/APIs/gRPC-API/Reference/MFiles.IRPCDocClassGroupsAdmin/AddDocClassGroup/index.md).
- Classes added to or removed from `member_classes` change the class-group information of
  existing documents of those classes.
- Increments the metadata structure version.
