How can I find the GitLab source URL for a private group when importing it to a new GitLab instance?

I am trying to import a private GitLab group from my gitlab.com account to the GitLab instance hosted by my university.

I have ownership rights for the original group and created the necessary personal access token.

However, I doubt that I am using the correct GitLab source URL. When I navigate to my group, the URL I see has the following structure:

https://gitlab.com/GROUPNAME

I wonder if the actual GitLab source URL should also include the group ID because using the https://gitlab.com/GROUPNAME URL is clearly not working.

The error notification I am getting reads:

No groups found. You don't have the Owner role for any groups in this instance.

I cannot make sense of it and would appreciate your advice.

I also stumbled upon this. But the solution is right in the input. It only wants the GitLab source URL, not the group URL. So remove the group name from the URL and it should find all the groups you have access to in the particular GitLab instance.
