This param allows clients to specify how much presence history they want
to fetch. Previously, the server always returned 14 days of history.
With the recent migration of the presence API to the much more efficient
system relying on incremental fetches via the last_update_id param added
in #29999, we can now afford to provide much more history to clients
that request it - as all that historical data will only be fetched once.
There are three endpoints involved:
- `/register` - this is the main useful endpoint for this, used by API
clients to fetch initial data and register an events queue. Clients can
pass the `presence_history_limit_days` param here.
- `/users/me/presence` - this endpoint is currently used by clients to
update their presence status and fetch incremental data, making the new
functionality not particularly useful here. However, we still add the
new `history_limit_days` param here, in case in the future clients
transition to using this also for the initial presence data fetch.
- `/` - used when opening the webapp. Naturally, params aren't passed
here, so the server just assumes a value from
`settings.PRESENCE_HISTORY_LIMIT_DAYS_FOR_WEB_APP` and returns
information about this default value in page_params.
Currently, we want to ask users if they would like to delete their
attachments after they have removed the attachments while editing. These
changes are preparatory changes on the backend to return a list of removed
attachments after the user has removed attachments while editing.
Fixes part of #25525.
This commit removes the 'prev_rendered_content_version'
field from:
* the 'edit_history' object within message objects in the
API response of `GET /messages`, `GET /messages/{message_id}`
and `POST /zulip-outgoing-webhook`.
* the 'update_message' event type
as it is an internal server implementation detail not used
by any client.
Note: The field is still stored in the 'edit_history' column
of the 'Message' table as it will be helpful when making
major changes to the markup rendering process.
This commit make changes in code to include can_manage_group
field to UserGroup objects passed with response of various endpoints
including "/register" endpoint and also in the group object
send with user group creation event.
The 'tutorial_status' field on 'UserProfile' model is
no longer used to show onboarding tutorial.
This commit removes the 'tutorial_status' field,
'POST users/me/tutorial_status' endpoint, and
'needs_tutorial' parameter in 'page_params'.
Fixes part of zulip#30043.
This commit removes create_web_public_stream_policy setting
since web-public channel creation permissions are now
handled by group-based setting.
We still pass "realm_create_web_public_stream_policy" in
"/register" response though for older clients with its
value being set depending on the value of group based
setting. If we cannot set its value to an appropriate enum
corresponding to the group setting, then we set it to
"Admins and moderators" considering that server will not
allow the users without permissions to create web-public
channels but the client can make sure that UI is
available to the users who have permission.
This allows clients to potentially lay out the thumbnails more
intelligently, or to provide a better "progressive-load" experience
when enlarging the thumbnail.
Previously animated images were automatically played in the
message feed of the web app.
Now that we have still thumbnails available for them, we can add a new
personal setting, "web_animate_image_previews", which controls how the
animated images would be played in the web app message feed -- always
played, on hover, or only in the image viewer.
Fixes#31016.
Adds a header to the section of changes notes about new and
deprecated narrow filters, so that it's easier to directly
link to the relevant content in the construct a narrow article
from the main API changelog and endpoint documentation.
Adds server and web app support for processing the new `with`
search operator.
Fixes part of #21505.

In a2ef1d7e93, we made changes so
that when you send a message, your view jumps to the conversation
where you sent it.
For some users it was an improvement, few reported that it
disrupts their workflows.
This prep commit adds a setting which will be used to allow users
to decide whether to automatically go to conversation where they
sent a message.
Previously, when a referrer's invitation to Zulip was accepted,
they got a notification from notification-bot indicating
their invitation has been accepted.
This commit adds an option for referrer to decide
whether he wants to receive the direct notification
from the notification-bot.
Fixes: #20398
This commit removes create_private_stream_policy setting as
we now use new group based setting.
The "/register" response includes realm_create_private_stream_policy
field to return a value representing superset of users who have the
permission to create private channels, as older clients still expect
this field.
Updates the main description of the API error handling article so
that the `code` key in the error reponse is more accurate.
Adds a bullet point to the API changelog for feature level 76 about
the `code` key being consistently in all error responses. This is
based on commit 8b9011dff8, which completed the migration to
JsonableError, at which point the API feature level was already
set to 75 and not yet set to 76.
Also, revises the other error related feature level 76 entries in
the API changelog.
Adds a header for the common, shared error responses that are
documented on the error handling page, and updates those error
descriptions to include information about any extra fields and to
end with any changes notes.
Create the is:followed search operator.
Fetch all messages that are from followed topics
using exists.
Update API documentation and changelog.

This commit removes create_public_stream_policy setting
since public channel creation permissions are now handled
by group-based setting.
We still pass "realm_create_public_stream_policy" in
"/register" response though for older clients with its
value being set depending on the value of group based
setting. If we cannot set its value to an appropriate
enum corresponding to the group setting, then we set
it to "Members only" considering that server will not
allow the users without permissions to create public
channels but the client can make sure that UI is
available to the users who have permission.
The documentation Creates a shared UserStatus schema that's used for
the return value of this new endpoint and for the existing user_status
objects returned by the register queue endpoint.

Fixes#19079.
This commit adds include_realm_default_subscriptions parameter
to the invite endpoints and the corresponding field in
PreregistrationUser and MultiuseInvite objects. This field will
be used to subscribe the new users to the default streams at the
time of account creation and not to the streams that were default
when sending the invite.
This commit changes the code to subscribe the invited user to default
streams even if the user who invited the new user was not allowed to
subscribe others to streams.
This commit adds support to pass object containing both old and new
values of the can_mention_group setting, as well as detailed API
documentation for this part of the API system.

The naming `uri` is deprecated while `url` should be used in order to
satisfy URL standards. For this reason, four endpoints are affected:
* The response content of three endpoints `/server_settings`,
`/register` and `/realm` that contain a field `realm_uri` is
changed to `realm_url`.
* In one of the common fields for all mobile push notifications payloads,
`realm_url` field is now added as an alias to `realm_uri`.
For backwards compatibility, we keep the field `realm_uri` and add
an alias `realm_url`.

We now "first_message_id" of the stream on the deletion of the first
message that was sent to it. This results in 1 extra query when any
stream message is deleted and 3 extra queries when the first message
sent to any stream is deleted.
Fixes#28877.
Updates the API changelog entry and changes notes for feature level
249 to match other API updates to narrow filters, and links to the
help center article on emoji reactions in these notes.
Feature level 249 changes were originally in commit c3408b56f0.
Updates the API changelog entries and changes notes for feature
levels 233 and 230, which both are related to the onboarding
steps (hotspots and one-time notices) updates.
Feature level 233 was originally documented in commit 83bd9955e3
and ac8af3d6de.
Feature level 230 was originally documented in commit 8d633cc36.
Updates the changelog entry to use "ID" instead of "id".
Revises text for "null" value to match other field descriptions
in these stream/subscription objects.
Adds nullable creator field, containing a reference to the user who
created the stream. When creating a stream, acting user is set as
the creator of the stream. Since API calls to create streams always
have an acting user, this field should always be set when streams
are created using the API.
Because streams can be created with no acting user, this field is
nullable. We try to backfill existing streams using RealmAuditLog table,
but not all streams are guaranteed to have a recorded create log. Thus
this new field is left null when it cannot be backfilled. We also set
this field to null when the creator user is deleted.
This commit adds an option to the advanced section of
Preferences settings, that would allow users to choose
whether to receive typing notifications from other
users.
Fixes#29642
Documents the addition of "channel" and "channels" as operators for
search/narrow filters, noting that they are aliases of the "stream"
and "streams" operators.
This change does not yet deprecate the "stream" and "streams"
operators.
Part of stream to channel rename project.
For endpoints with a type parameter to indicate whether a message is
a direct or stream message, adds support for passing "channel" as a
value for stream messages.
Part of stream to channel rename project.
Adds "/invites/multiuse" endpoint to the API documentation.
Creates a shared schema for the invite_as and invite_expires_in_minutes
parameters that are the same for the "POST /invites" endpoint.
Also, updates the response documented for the "GET /invites" endpoint
to match the information in the "POST /invites" and "/invites/multiuse"
documentation.
Adds "channel" to the `stream_wildcards` frozenset for stream
wildcard notifications on the backend/server.
Updates frontend/web-app to handle "channel" as the other stream
wildcards are handled in the typeahead and composebox modules.
Updates the API version and documentation for the addition of
"channel" as a wildcard mention. But does not change any of the
functionailty of (or deprecate) the "stream" wildcard at this
point.
Part of project to rename "stream" to "channel".
Adds a "Message formatting" article to the API documentation. To
start, the article is a changelog of updates to markup features for
messages, with the idea being that it can be expanded to further
describe and document Zulip's markup features in future iterations.
Previously, users were allowed to signup or change their names to
those which already existed in the realm.
This commit adds an Organization Permission, that shall enforce
users to use unique names while signing up or changing their
names. If a same or normalized full name is found in realm,
then a validation error is thrown.
Fixes#7830.
Links to the available message flag table in the feature level 224
changelog entry, as there are relevant **Changes** notes for this
feature level in that part of the API documentation.
Updates the order and formatting of these new and deprecated flags
in the available flags table. Also, adds a link to the topic
wildcard mentions section of the help center documentation.
Makes small clean ups to the changes notes for this feature level,
as well as the changelog entry itself.
The original commit for these feature level 224 API changes was
c597de6a1d.
This commit adds a realm-level setting named
'zulip_update_announcements_stream' that configures the
stream to which zulip updates should be posted.
Fixes part of #28604.
This commit renames the realm-level setting
'signup_notifications_stream' to 'signup_announcements_stream'.
The new name reflects better what the setting does.
This commit renames the realm-level setting 'notifications_stream'
to 'new_stream_announcements_stream'.
The new name reflects better what the setting does.
Adds `user.realm.string_id` as the realm name to the base payload
for notifications. Uses this realm name in the body of the alert
in the `apns_data`.
Changes the event string from "test-by-device-token" to "test".
Fixes#28075.
Earlier, the event sent when an onboarding step (hotspot till now)
is marked as read generated an event with type='hotspots' and
'hotspots' named array in it.
This commit renames the type to 'onboarding_steps' and the array
to 'onboarding_steps' to reflect the fact that it'll also contain
data for elements other than hotspots.
This commit adds a new endpoint 'users/me/onboarding_steps'
deprecating the older 'users/me/hotspots' to mark hotspot as read.
We also renamed the view `mark_hotspot_as_read` to
`mark_onboarding_step_as_read`.
Reason: Our plan is to make this endpoint flexible to support
other types of UI elements not just restricted to hotspots.
This commit introduces non-intro hotspots.
They are a bit different than intro hotspots in the
following ways:
* All the non-intro hotspots are sent at once instead of
sending them one by one like intro hotspots.
* They only activate when a specific event occurs,
unlike intro hotspot where they activate after the
previous hotspot is read.
Now, the topic wildcard mention follows the following
rules:
* If the topic has less than 15 participants , anyone
can use @ topic mentions.
* For more than 15, the org setting 'wildcard_mention_policy'
determines who can use @ topic mentions.
Earlier, topic wildcard mentions followed the same restriction
as stream wildcard mentions, which was incorrect.
Fixes part of #27700.
This commit adds code to send "realm_user/remove" event
when a guest user loses access to a user due to the user
being unsubscribed from one or more streams.
This commit adds code to send user creation events to
guests who gain access to new subscribers and to the
new guest subscribers who gain access to existing
stream subscribers.
The presence and user status update events are only sent to accessible
users, i.e. guests do not receive presence and user status updates for
users they cannot access.
This commit adds code to make sure that update events for changing
a user's role, email, etc. are not sent to guests who cannot access
the modified user.
This commit adds a new option 'DMs, mentions, and followed topics'
to 'desktop_icon_count_display' setting.
The total unread count of DMs, mentions, and followed topics appears
in desktop sidebar and browser tab when this option is configured.
Some existing options are relabeled and renumbered. We finally have:
* All unread messages
* DMs, mentions, and followed topics
* DMs and mentions
* None
Fixes#27503.
