Access to other contacts groups information

From Google Contacts web interface you can edit a contact and include her in several groups/tags. Then if you decide to "Hide from contacts", the contact will not be in My contacts anymore, but she still exists in Other contacts, and also you can open her and see the groups.

However, People API don't let to know the groups of Other contacts, since you can only retrieve names , emailsAddresses and phoneNumbers.

Is there any workaround for this?

Ok, I figured out that Other contacts have the resourceName in the form otherContacts/<contact-id>, but if you change it to people/<contact-id> (keeping the same contact-id) you can retrieve all the other contact fields with People.People.get()
