Muting Users

PubNub Access Manager enables you to manage access controls for individual users so they can be muted on specific channels.

Mute user in channels

To mute a user in channels, call the grant method and set the write permissions on the channels to false.

Go to SDK

pubnub.grant({
  channels: ['ch-1','ch-2'], //channels to allow grant on
  authKeys: ['key1'], // the keys we are provisioning
  write: false,
}, (status) => {
  // handle status
});

Go to SDK

pubnub.grant()
    .channels(Arrays.asList("ch-1")) //channels to allow grant on
    .authKeys(Arrays.asList("key1")) // the keys we are provisioning
    .write(false) // allow those keys to write (false by default)
    .async(new PNCallback<PNAccessManagerGrantResult>() {
        @Override
        public void onResponse(PNAccessManagerGrantResult result, PNStatus status) {
            // PNAccessManagerGrantResult is a parsed and abstracted response from server
        }
    });

Go to SDK

pubnub.Grant()
    .Channels(new string[]{
        "ch-1"
    })
    .AuthKeys(new string[] {
        "key1"
    })
    .Write(false) // allow those keys to write (false by default)
    .Execute(new PNAccessManagerGrantResultExt(
        (result, status) => {
            // PNAccessManagerGrantResult is a parsed and abstracted response from server
        }
    ));

Go to SDK

res, status, err := pn.Grant().
    Channels([]string{"ch-1"}). // channels to allow grant on
    AuthKeys([]string{"key1"}). // the keys we are provisioning
    Write(false). // allow those keys to manage channel groups (false by default)
    Execute()

fmt.Println(res, status, err)
