Zulip makes it possible to move messages, or an entire topic, to another stream.
Organizations can [configure][configure-moving-permissions] which
[roles](/help/roles-and-permissions) have permission to move messages between
streams.

## Moving content to private streams
Access to messages moved to another stream will immediately be controlled by the
access policies for the destination stream. Content moved to a private stream will
thus appear to be deleted to users who are not subscribers of the destination stream.
Content moved to a [private stream with protected history](/help/stream-permissions)
will only be accessible to users who both:
* Were subscribed to the *original* stream when the content was *sent*.
* Are subscribed to the *destination* stream when the content is *moved*.
message_edit: Only move muted topic records when moving whole topics. Our original implementation of moving muted topic records when a topic is moved took a shortcut of treating all change_later usage as something with intent to move the whole topic. This works OK when moving the whole topic via this interface, but not when moving a last off-topic message in the topic. Address this by changing the rule to match the existing moved_all_visible_messages variable.

## Moving content out of private streams
In [private streams with protected history](/help/stream-permissions),
Zulip determines whether to treat the entire topic as moved using the
access permissions of the user requesting the topic move. This means
bots: Refer to notification bot messages as automated notices. Updates in-app and documentation references to automated messages sent by the notification bot as automated notices (or automated messages where more appropriate/clear), instead of notifications. Also, makes some small related revisions / general clean ups to `resolve-a-topic.md`. Fixes #22188.
2022-07-28 15:38:32 +02:00
that the automated notices sent by the notification bot will report
that the entire topic was moved if the requesting user moved every
message in the topic that they can access, regardless of whether older
messages exist that they cannot access.

Similarly, [muted topics](/help/mute-a-topic) will be migrated to the
new stream and topic if the requesting user moved every message in the
topic that they can access.
This model ensures that the topic editing feature cannot be abused to
determine any information about the existence of messages or topics
that one does not have permission to access.
