A method and apparatus are disclosed for dynamically selecting a complete or referenced group indication when initiating a group communication session in a communication system. A client device may include logic through which the device will decide, at the time of group session initiation, whether to initiate the session by reference to a complete group listing or rather whether to initiate the session by reference to a group identifier (e.g., group-ID). The client device may be capable of maintaining group data in order to indicate whether the client device and a communication server have agreed on a group-ID to correspond with a particular group. When a user directs the client device to initiate a session with a particular group, the client device will initiate the session by reference to the group-ID if the client device and communication server have agreed on a group-ID to correspond to the particular group. On the other hand, if not, the client device will initiate the session by reference to the complete group listing for the particular group.
