Channels

Filter group channels by users

To filter channels by users, use the SetUsersExactFilter() or SetUsersIncludeFilter(). Let's assume the ID of the current user is Jane and the user is a member of two group channels:

  • channelA consists of Katherine, Jane, and Julia.
  • channelB consists of Katherine, Jane, Julia, and Tyler.

An ExactFilter returns the list of channels containing exactly the queried users.

SBDGroupChannelListQuery* query = SBDGroupChannel::CreateMyGroupChannelListQuery();

std::vector<SBDUser> users;
users.push_back(USER_1);    // L"Katherine"
users.push_back(USER_2);    // L"Jane"
users.push_back(USER_3);    // L"Julia"

query->SetUsersExactFilter(users);
query->LoadNextPage([](std::vector<SBDGroupChannel*> groupChannels, SBDError* error) {
    if (error != nullptr) {
        // Handle error.
        return;
    }

    // Only channelA is returned in a result list through the groupChannels parameter of the callback function.
});

An IncludeFilter returns channels where the userIDs are included. This method can return one of two different results, based on the parameter SBDGroupChannelListQueryType.

SBDGroupChannelListQuery* query = SBDGroupChannel::CreateMyGroupChannelListQuery();

std::vector<SBDUser> users;
users.push_back(USER_2);    // L"Jane"
users.push_back(USER_3);    // L"Julia"
users.push_back(USER_4);    // L"Tyler"

query->SetUsersIncludeFilter(users, SBDGroupChannelListQueryType::And);
query->LoadNextPage([](std::vector<SBDGroupChannel*> groupChannels, SBDError* error) {
    if (error != nullptr) {
        // Handle error.
        return;
    }

    // Only channelB including {'Jane', 'Julia', 'Tyler'} as a subset is returned in a result list.
});

SBDGroupChannelListQuery* query = SBDGroupChannel::CreateMyGroupChannelListQuery();

std::vector<SBDUser> users;
users.push_back(USER_2);    // L"Jane"
users.push_back(USER_3);    // L"Julia"
users.push_back(USER_4);    // L"Tyler"

query->SetUsersIncludeFilter(users, SBDGroupChannelListQueryType::Or);
query->LoadNextPage([](std::vector<SBDGroupChannel*> groupChannels, SBDError* error) {
    if (error != nullptr) {
        // Handle error.
        return;
    }

    // If channelA and channelB include {'Jane'}, channelA and channelB include {'Julia'}, and channelB includes {'Tyler'},
    // both channelA and channelB are returned in a result list.    
});
