Getting all CNGroups from CNContactStore

Question

It seems that there is no way to get the groups from a CNContactStore. The CNContactStore uses a predicate that requires the group identifier to get the group. CNContact does not have any way to find out what group it is in (that I can find).

Is there something I am missing in the documentation? It would really help to be able to see all the available groups in a contact store, and I find it difficult to believe that it isn't possible.

Yes. What you are missing in the documentation is the documentation, which tells you the answer:

Pass a nil predicate to fetch all groups.

Look at that, it's spelled out right there in the docs. Feeling dumb. Thanks. – erdekhayser Oct 15 '15 at 19:55
