[Group:442658] is the Group Identifier. Yo can query this and use for any group related functions in appian. To know details on group based on its id, you can use group()

ex: group(442658,"groupName")

First of all, if I understand correctly request table which are you talking about is specific to your instance. So we cant say with 100% accuracy that, this is the groupiD.

But based on details shared by you, looks like that column is storing the group Id of the group.

UUID is different then ID, ID changes from env to env. UUID remain consistent across env.

Administrators can fetch the group details like users in group and all.

Basic users shall be able to do that only if "Visibility" is set to public and "Privacy Policy" is set to low in properties

Check the group() function document. By using the group() function, you can find other details using group id.
