Update a Group

Update Group

In other words, as a group owner, how can I update the group details?

You can update the existing details of the group using the updateGroup() method.

Update Group

var GUID = "GUID";
var groupName = "Hello Group";
var groupType = CometChat.GROUP_TYPE.PUBLIC;
var group = new CometChat.Group(GUID, groupName, groupType);

CometChat.updateGroup(group).then(
group => {
  console.log("Groups details updated successfully:", group);
}, error => {
  console.log("Group details update failed with exception:", error);
}
);

Typescript

var GUID: string = "GUID";
var groupName: string = "Hello Group!";
var groupType: string = CometChat.GROUP_TYPE.PUBLIC;

var group: CometChat.Group = new CometChat.Group(GUID, groupName, groupType);

CometChat.updateGroup(group).then(
  (group: CometChat.Group) => {
      console.log("Group details updated successfully:", group);
  }, (error: CometChat.CometChatException) => {
      console.log("Group details update failed with exception:", error);
  }
);

This method takes an instance of the Group class as a parameter which should contain the data that you wish to update.
