Add user to group error - Code

Question

I am getting an error when trying to add a user to group in JavaScript, here is my code below:

    user = web.ensureUser("domain\\natalie");
    membersGroup = web.get_siteGroups().getByName("site Members");
    membersGroup.get_users().add(user);
    userCollection = membersGroup.get_users();

    context.load(user);
    context.load(membersGroup);
    context.load(userCollection);
    context.executeQueryAsync(_onUserSucceed, _onFail);

I am getting the error: The parameter loginName cannot be empty or bigger than 251 characters.

Your code seems fine, but how did you put the domain name? Was it domain\natalie? Sometimes you need to make it like: domain.local to make it work or domain.[value] depending on your environment. The thing is that you have to fully qualify it when it's needed.
