Chat Invitations
Add New User to Chat Room
Use addNewMemberToChatRoom API to add other users to chat rooms.
Please Note
User can add another user to the chat room only if they are already a member of the chat room, use
joinChatRoomAPI for becoming a member.
sdk.chat.addNewMemberToChatRoom(roomId: roomId, profileId: profileId) {
[weak self] result in
DispatchQueue.main.async {
guard let self = self else { return }
switch result {
case .success(let member):
self.showAlert(title: "Now Member", message: member.url.absoluteString)
case let .failure(error):
self.showAlert(title: "Error", message: error.localizedDescription)
}
}
}
sdk.chat().addUserToChatRoom(chatRoomId,
userId,
object : LiveLikeCallback<ChatRoomMembership>() {
override fun onResponse(result: ChatRoomMembership?, error: String?) {
result?.let {
showToast("User Added Successfully")
}
error?.let {
showToast(it)
}
}
})
LiveLike.addNewMemberToChatRoom({
roomId: "9e6f1bc4-9f02-4c57-92b7-7521d0f5b027",
profileId: "aa7e03fc-01f0-4a98-a2e0-3fed689632d7"
}).then(membership => console.log(membership))
Receive notification on adding user to chat room in Real-time
Platform specific implementation
Implementation for receiving notification when user is added to chat room is different for Web, Android and IOS.
/*
* To receive real-time notifications of the User being added a Chat Room,
* you need to implement the `ChatClientDelegate`.
* The method `userDidBecomeMemberOfChatRoom` returns an object of type `NewChatMembershipInfo`
* that contains all the details related to the Chat Room Membership.

Invite User to Chat Room
You can allow the User to invite another user to a particular chat room that they are already a part of.
You can call the sendChatRoomInviteToUser method which sends an invitation to the other user where the other user could decide either to accept or reject the invitation.
sdk.chat.sendChatRoomInviteToUser(roomId: roomId, profileId: profileId) {
[weak self] result in
DispatchQueue.main.async {
guard let self = self else { return }

self.showAlert(title: "Invitation Sent", message: invitation.url.absoluteString)
case let .failure(error):
self.showAlert(title: "Error", message: error.localizedDescription)
}
}
}
sdk.chat().sendChatRoomInviteToUser(
chatRoomId,
userId,
object : LiveLikeCallback<ChatRoomInvitation>() {
override fun onResponse(result: ChatRoomInvitation?, error: String?) {
result?.let {
showToast("User Invited Successfully")
}
error?.let {
showToast(it)
}
}
})
// roomId of the chatRoom to which we need to invite other profile
const roomId = "9e6f1bc4-9f02-4c57-92b7-7521d0f5b027"
// other profile id
const profileId = "aa7e03fc-01f0-4a98-a2e0-3fed689632d7"
LiveLike.sendChatRoomInviteToProfile({
