Arguments

Argument Example Required Description
subscription_data [{"stream_id":1,"property":"pin_to_top","value":true}] Yes

A list of objects that describe the changes that should be applied in each subscription. Each object represents a subscription, and must have a stream_id key that identifies the stream, as well as the property being modified and its new value.

The possible values for each property and value pairs are:

  • color (string): the hex value of the user's display color for the stream.
  • in_home_view (boolean): whether the stream should be visible in the home view (true) or muted and thus hidden from the home view (false).
  • pin_to_top (boolean): whether to pin the stream at the top of the stream list.
  • desktop_notifications (boolean): whether to show desktop notifications for all messages sent to the stream.
  • audible_notifications (boolean): whether to play a sound notification for all messages sent to the stream.
  • push_notifications (boolean): whether to trigger a mobile push notification for all messages sent to the stream.

Response

Return values

  • subscription_data: The same subscription_data object sent by the client for the request, confirming the changes made.
