How it works
What a leader is actually allowed to do is settings-driven rather than fixed by the role. LearnDash has site-wide settings governing whether leaders can edit courses, manage membership, see detailed reporting or mark assignments — so “group leader” means different things on different sites.
That is worth knowing before assuming a leader can do something, and before adding one expecting them to.
Leading a group does not grant the leader the group’s course access. A leader who should also take the courses needs adding as a member as well, through learndash/manage-group-membership.
A leader normally needs the group_leader role to use their permissions at all, and learndash/manage-group-leaders warns when somebody is added who does not have it.

Example
Ask your assistant:
Who manages this group?
It resolves to one call:
{
"ability": "learndash/list-group-leaders",
"parameters": {
"group_id": 700
}
}Worth knowing
- Leader permissions are site settings, not a fixed role definition.
- Leading does not grant course access.
- The
group_leaderrole is usually required for the permissions to apply. - Read-only.
