    Description

    The Web Chat SDK provides a feature for User Status Management, where each user has two different types of status:
    Normal Status. An SDK built-in status that cannot be directly modified by clients.
    Custom Status. A client-defined status that can be modified. Using Custom Status, you can set information such as "Listening to music," "During the call," etc.
    Note:
    User status is specific to the current user and is not related to the device. If multiple devices are logged in to the same account simultaneously, querying or setting the status by device is not supported.
    There are three types of normal user status:
    Online (TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_ONLINE): The current user has logged in and is online, can send and receive messages normally.
    Offline (TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_OFFLINE): Web login/logout will not trigger offline status. In apps integrating Native IMSDK, offline status will be triggered.
    Unlogged in (TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNLOGINED): The user has never logged in after registering an account, or the user proactively called logout to log out.

    Set your custom status

    You can call the interface setSelfStatus to set the customStatus field for your custom status. Once set successfully, you will receive a notification of your status change through the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED event.
    Note:
    1. Calling setSelfStatus does not require upgrading to the Premium edition, nor does it need the Console Switch to be turned on.
    2. This interface does not perform frequency limiting control.
    3. You can actively clear your status by setting the customStatus field to an empty string when calling the setSelfStatus interface.
    4. After logging out for a period of time (Web), the Chat backend will automatically clear the custom status. This will also trigger a status change notification.
    API
    chat.setSelfStatus(options);
    Parameters
    The options parameter is of the Objecttype, and contains the following attribute values:
    Name
    Type
    Description
    customStatus
    String
    User Custom Status
    Returned value
    Promise
    Example
    // Set customStatus to an empty string '', this will clear your custom status
    let promise = chat.setSelfStatus({customStatus: 'xxx'});
    promise.then(function(imResponse) {
    console.log(imResponse.data);
    const { userID, statusType, customStatus } = imResponse.data;
    // userID - User ID
    // statusType - User status. The enumerated values and descriptions are as follows:
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNKNOWN - Unknown
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_ONLINE - Online
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_OFFLINE - Offline
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNLOGINED - Not Logged In
    // customStatus - User Custom Status
    }).catch(function(imError) {
    console.warn('setSelfStatus error:', imError); // Failed to set user's custom status
    });

    Check User Status

    The API will return both the normal status and the custom status of the queried users.
    Note:
    1. Querying your own status does not require upgrading to the Premium Edition or enabling the console switch.
    2. Querying your own status is not subject to API rate limiting control.
    3. Querying the status of other users requires upgrading to the Premium Edition, with a default interface call limit of 20 requests per 5 seconds, and a single query can include no more than 500 users.
    4. Querying the status of other users requires enabling "Set user status query and status change notification" in the Chat Console in advance. If the switch is turned off, calling getUserStatus will result in an error.
    API
    chat.getUserStatus(options);
    Parameters
    The options parameter is of the Objecttype, and contains the following attribute values:
    Name
    Type
    Description
    userIDList
    Array
    List of userIDs to be queried. When querying yourself, you only need to pass your own userID.
    Returned value
    Promise
    Example
    // Check your own user status
    // userIDList includes only your own userID to query your own status
    let promise = chat.getUserStatus({userIDList: [`${myUserID}`]});
    promise.then(function(imResponse) {
    const { successUserList } = imResponse.data;
    successUserList.forEach((item) => {
    const { userID, statusType, customStatus } = item;
    // userID - User ID
    // statusType - User status, the enumerated values and descriptions are as follows:
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNKNOWN - Unknown
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_ONLINE - Online
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_OFFLINE - Offline
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNLOGINED - Not Logged In
    // customStatus - User Definition Status
    });
    }).catch(function(imError) {
    console.warn('getUserStatus error:', imError); // Failed to obtain user status
    });

    Check the status of others

    Set userIDList to the userID list of others to check their status.
    
    Example
    // Query the status of others
    let promise = chat.getUserStatus({userIDList: ['user0', 'user1']});
    promise.then(function(imResponse) {
    const { successUserList, failureUserList } = imResponse.data;
    // List of users with successful queries
    successUserList.forEach((item) => {
    const { userID, statusType, customStatus } = item;
    // userID - User ID
    // statusType - User status, the enumerated values and descriptions are as follows:
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNKNOWN - Unknown
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_ONLINE - Online
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_OFFLINE - Offline
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNLOGINED - Not Logged In
    // customStatus - User Definition Status
    });
    
    // List of users with failed queries
    failureUserList.forEach((item) => {
    const { userID, code, message } = item;
    // userID - User ID of the failed query
    // code - Error code of the failed query
    // message - Error message of the failed query
    });
    }).catch(function(imError) {
    console.warn('getUserStatus error:', imError); // Failed to obtain user status
    });

    Subscription user status

    After successful subscription, when the status of the subscribed user changes (including normal status and custom status), you will receive a user status change notification through the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED event.
    Note:
    1. This API requires upgrading to the Premium Edition.
    2. API rate limiting defaults to 20 requests every 5 seconds, and the maximum number of users per subscription cannot exceed 100.
    3. There is a limit on the number of subscriptions in the list. Once the limit is exceeded, the earliest subscribed users will be automatically eliminated.
    API
    chat.subscribeUserStatus(options);
    Parameters
    The options parameter is of the Object type, and contains the following attribute values:
    Name
    Type
    Description
    userIDList
    Array
    List of user userID, up to 100 per request.
    Returned value
    Promise
    Example
    let promise = chat.subscribeUserStatus({userIDList: ['user0', 'user1']});
    promise.then(function(imResponse) {
    const { failureUserList } = imResponse.data;
    // List of users with failed subscriptions
    failureUserList.forEach((item) => {
    const { userID, code, message } = item;
    // userID - User ID of the failed query
    // code - Error code of the failed query
    // message - Error message of the failed query
    });
    }).catch(function(imError) {
    // Error information regarding the failure to subscribe to user status
    console.warn('subscribeUserStatus error:', imError);
    });

    Unsubscribe user status

    After successful unsubscription, when the status of the user changes (including normal status and custom status), the SDK will not dispatch the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED event.
    Note:
    API rate limiting defaults to 20 requests every 5 seconds, and the maximum number of users per unsubscription cannot exceed 100.
    API
    chat.unsubscribeUserStatus(options);
    Parameters
    Name
    Type
    Description
    userIDList
    Array | undefined
    List of user IDs, with a maximum of 100 per single request. When userIDList is an empty array or undefined, it cancels all current subscriptions.
    Returned value
    Promise
    Example
    // Unsubscribe current partial users
    let promise = chat.unsubscribeUserStatus({userIDList: ['user0', 'user1']});
    promise.then(function(imResponse) {
    const { failureUserList } = imResponse.data;
    // List of users with failed unsubscriptions
    failureUserList.forEach((item) => {
    const { userID, code, message } = item;
    // userID - User ID of the failed query
    // code - Error code of the failed query
    // message - Error message of the failed query
    });
    }).catch(function(imError) {
    console.warn('unsubscribeUserStatus error:', imError); // Information related to the unsubscription failure
    });
    // Unsubscribe from all current subscriptions
    let promise = chat.unsubscribeUserStatus();
    promise.then(function(imResponse) {
    const { failureUserList } = imResponse.data;
    // List of users with failed unsubscriptions
    failureUserList.forEach((item) => {
    const { userID, code, message } = item;
    // userID - User ID of the failed query
    // code - Error code of the failed query
    // message - Error message of the failed query
    });
    }).catch(function(imError) {
    console.warn('unsubscribeUserStatus error:', imError); // Information related to the unsubscription failure
    });

    Notification of Own Status Change

    If you have pre-registered for the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED event listener, when your own status changes, the SDK will dispatch the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED event, and you can get your latest status there.

    Notification of Friend's Status Change

    1. If you have enabled the automatic friend status notification in the Chat Console, when a friend's status changes, the SDK will dispatch the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED event, and you can get your friend's latest status there.
    2. If you have not enabled automatic friend status notifications and still want to be aware of friend status changes, you need to call subscribeUserStatus to actively subscribe to the friend's status. When the friend's status changes, the SDK will dispatch the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED callback.
    3. If you have neither enabled automatic notification of friend status nor called subscribeUserStatus to actively subscribe to friend status, then when a friend's status changes, you will not be able to perceive it.

    Status Change of Regular Users (Non-friends)

    If you want to be aware of regular user (non-friend) status changes, you can only call subscribeUserStatus to actively subscribe. When that user's status changes, the TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED callback will be triggered, and you can get their latest status there.
    Example
    /**
    * Scenarios for receiving notifications:
    * 1. When a subscribed user's status changes (including online status and user-defined status), this event will be triggered
    * 2. If the Friend Status Notification Switch is enabled in the console, even if you haven't actively subscribed, this event will be triggered when a friend's status changes
    * 3. When the same account logs in to multiple devices, if one device modifies the user-defined status, all devices will receive this event
    */
    let onUserStatusUpdated = function(event) {
    console.log(event.data);
    const userStatusList = event.data;
    userStatusList.forEach((item) => {
    const { userID, statusType, customStatus } = item;
    // userID - User ID
    // statusType - User status, the enumerated values and descriptions are as follows:
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNKNOWN - Unknown
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_ONLINE - Online
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_OFFLINE - Offline
    // TencentCloudChat.TYPES.USER_STATUS_UNLOGINED - Not Logged In
    // customStatus - User Definition Status
    })
    };
    chat.on(TencentCloudChat.EVENT.USER_STATUS_UPDATED, onUserStatusUpdated);

    Status Change Notification across multiple platforms, Multi-Instance Synchronization

    If you have enabled multi-client or same platform multi-instance login (for details, please see Multi-client or same platform multi-instance login), the same account can log in on different devices. When the self-defined status of a user logged in on one device changes, the Chat background will send a status change notification to other logged-in devices as well.

    FAQs

    When invoking the Subscription/Cancel Subscription API, the interface prompts the error code "72001"

    Error code 72001 indicates that the corresponding capability has not been enabled in the console. Please log in to the Chat Console to turn on the corresponding feature toggle.
