Unable to list users of all group emails (google apps script)

I am trying to write a script that will save all users of a Group address to a spreadsheet. I am running into a problem with groups that I am not a member of. (this works fine if I am a member or owner of the group)



If i go to https://groups.google.com/a/(domain)/forum/#!members/(groupname) I can view all of the members of the group. However when I try to program this out using:



 var group = GroupsApp.getGroupByEmail(GROUP_EMAIL);
var users = group.getUsers();


I get: "You do not have permission to view the member list for the group:" for groups that I am not currently a member/owner of. For the sake of not having to add me to every group, is there a way to get this to work with out needing access to the AdminDirectory?



When I tried with AdminDirectory, I get:




"error":
"errors": [

"domain": "global",
"reason": "forbidden",
"message": "Not Authorized to access this resource/api"

],
"code": 403,
"message": "Not Authorized to access this resource/api"




I would think there would be since I can view all members from the http address that I listed above, even while not a member
