Update A Group

Update Group

Use updateGroup() to modify group details. Pass a Group object with the updated values.

TypeScript

const GUID: string = "GUID";
const groupName: string = "Hello Group!";
const groupType: string = CometChat.GROUP_TYPE.PUBLIC;

const group: CometChat.Group = new CometChat.Group(GUID, groupName, groupType);

CometChat.updateGroup(group).then(
(group: CometChat.Group) => {
console.log("Group details updated successfully:", group);
}, (error: CometChat.CometChatException) => {
console.log("Group details update failed with exception:", error);
}
);

JavaScript

const GUID = "GUID";
const groupName = "Hello Group";
const groupType = CometChat.GROUP_TYPE.PUBLIC;
const group = new CometChat.Group(GUID, groupName, groupType);

CometChat.updateGroup(group).then(
group => {
  console.log("Groups details updated successfully:", group);
}, error => {
  console.log("Group details update failed with exception:", error);
}
);

Parameter	Description
group	An instance of Group class with updated values

On success, returns a Group object with the updated details.

There is no real-time event listener for group updates. To get the latest group information after calling updateGroup(), fetch the group details again using getGroup().
