I've found that this module is pretty poorly documented and doesn't appear to work well with the latest version of OG (7.x-2.7). There are functions it calls that no longer exist in OG.

In order to join a user to an organic group testing with Postman the following endpoint works for me:
http://MYSITEURL/MYENDPOINT/og/join

Then the data I post is as follows (JSON format)

{
    "uid": "USER ID HERE",
    "gid": "GROUP ID HERE"
}

This will get you passed the controller not found error but you will likely get additional errors because the functions it calls to subscribe a user to a group no longer exist. The calls to og_get_group_membership() and og_membership_create() are incorrect. I have changed some code in order to get it to work. Once I can fully test it I will try and post a patch.

I'm almost to the point where I'm considering just rewriting my own custom resources for OG because there are too many complications with this module.

I've fixed this problem in this issue #2672148: Improve module quality, and changed it to use the URL path (for better access control) instead of POST data (even though you still make an empty POST to use it):

?q=[endpoint]/og/join/[gid]/[uid]
?q=[endpoint]/og/leave/[gid]/[uid]

I've applied for co-maintainership, so I hope to make a new dev release with this fix soon.
