Retrieve the latest information on participants
To retrieve the latest and updated information on each online participant in an open channel, you need to create a new query instance using the SbParticipantListQuery
instance, then call the LoadNextPage()
method consecutively to retrieve the latest information.
You can also retrieve the latest information on participants at the application level. Similar to retrieving a list of users, you need to create a new query instance using
SbApplicationUserListQuery
then call LoadNextPage()
until you retrieve the latest information.
You can get the participant's current connection status by checking the SbUserConnectionStatus
of each SbUser
object in the returned list. Acceptable values of the SbUserConnectionStatus
property are Offline
and Online
.
Connection status values
Value | Description |
---|---|
SbUserConnectionStatus.Offline | The user isn't connected to the Sendbird server. |
SbUserConnectionStatus.Online | The user is connected to the Sendbird server. |
Note: If you need to keep track of the connection status of some users in real time, we recommend that you periodically call the
LoadNextPage()
method of aSbApplicationUserListQuery
instance after specifying itsUserIdsFilter
filter, perhaps in intervals of one minute or more.
