This event is sent to organization administrators and the creator of the changed invitation; this tells clients they need to refetch data from `GET /invites` if they are displaying UI containing active invitations. **Changes**: Before Zulip 8.0 (feature level 209), this event was only sent to organization administrators. properties: id: $ref: "#/components/schemas/EventIdSchema" type: allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/EventTypeSchema" - enum: - invites_changed additionalProperties: false example: {"type": "invites_changed", "id": 0} - type: object description: | Event sent to all users in a Zulip organization when a new user joins or when a guest user gains access to a user. Processing this event is important to being able to display basic details on other users given only their ID. If the current user is a guest whose access to a newly created user is limited by a `can_access_all_users_group` policy, and the event queue was registered with the `user_list_incomplete` client capability, then the event queue will not receive an event for such a new user. If a newly created user is inaccessible to the current user via such a policy, but the client lacks `user_list_incomplete` client capability, then this event will be delivered to the queue, with an "Unknown user" object with the usual format but placeholder data whose only variable content is the user ID. **Changes**: Before Zulip 8.0 (feature level 232), the `user_list_incomplete` client capability did not exist, and so all clients whose access to a new user was prevented by `can_access_all_users_group` policy would receive a fake "Unknown user" event for such a user. Starting with Zulip 8.0 (feature level 228), this event is also sent when a guest user gains access to a user. properties: id: $ref: "#/components/schemas/EventIdSchema" type: allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/EventTypeSchema" - enum: - realm_user op: type: string enum: - add person: $ref: "#/components/schemas/User" additionalProperties: false example: { "type": "realm_user", "op": "add", "person": { "email": "foo@zulip.com", "delivery_email": null, "user_id": 38, "avatar_version": 1, "is_admin": false, "is_owner": false, "is_guest": false, "is_billing_admin": false, "role": 400, "is_bot": false, "full_name": "full name", "timezone": "", "is_active": true, "date_joined": "2020-07-15T15:04:02.030833+00:00", "avatar_url": "https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c6b5578d4964bd9c5fae593c6868912a?d=identicon&version=1", "profile_data": {}, }, "id": 0, } - type: object description: | Event sent to guest users when they lose access to a user. **Changes**: As of Zulip 8.0 (feature level 228), this event is no longer deprecated.

While most presence updates are done via polling the [main presence endpoint](/api/get-presence), this event is important to avoid confusing users when someone comes online and immediately sends a message (one wouldn't want them to still appear offline at that point!). If the `CAN_ACCESS_ALL_USERS_GROUP_LIMITS_PRESENCE` server-level setting is set to `true`, then the event is only sent to users who can access the user who came back online. **Changes**: Prior to Zulip 8.0 (feature level 228), this event was sent to all users in the organization. properties: id: $ref: "#/components/schemas/EventIdSchema" type: allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/EventTypeSchema" - enum: - presence user_id: type: integer description: | The ID of the modified user. email: type: string description: | The Zulip API email of the user. **Deprecated**: This field will be removed in a future release as it is redundant with the `user_id`. deprecated: true server_timestamp: type: number description: | The timestamp of when the Zulip server received the user's presence as a UNIX timestamp. presence: type: object description: | Object containing the details of the user's most recent presence. additionalProperties: type: object description: | `{client_name}`: Object containing the details of the user's presence. **Changes**: Starting with Zulip 7.0 (feature level 178), this will always be `"website"` as the server no longer stores which client submitted presence updates.

This event is also sent when a user gains access to a channel they previously [could not access](/help/channel-permissions), such as when their [role](/help/roles-and-permissions) changes, a private channel is made public, or a guest user is subscribed to a public (or private) channel. Note that organization administrators who are not subscribed will not be able to see content on the channel; just that it exists. **Changes**: Prior to Zulip 8.0 (feature level 220), this event was incorrectly not sent to guest users a web-public channel was created. Prior to Zulip 8.0 (feature level 205), this event was not sent when a user gained access to a channel due to their role changing. Prior to Zulip 8.0 (feature level 192), this event was not sent when guest users gained access to a public channel by being subscribed.

The short description of the channel rendered as HTML, intended to be used when displaying the channel description in a UI. One should use the standard Zulip rendered_markdown CSS when displaying this content so that emoji, LaTeX, and other syntax work correctly. And any client-side security logic for user-generated message content should be applied when displaying this HTML as though it were the body of a Zulip message. history_public_to_subscribers: type: boolean description: | Note: Only present if the changed property was `invite_only`. Whether the history of the channel is public to its subscribers. Currently always true for public channels (i.e. `"invite_only": false` implies `"history_public_to_subscribers": true`), but clients should not make that assumption, as we may change that behavior in the future. is_web_public: type: boolean description: | Note: Only present if the changed property was `invite_only`.

Clients can correctly identify these rendering update event with earlier Zulip versions by checking whether the `user_id` field was omitted. message_id: type: integer description: | The ID of the message which was edited or updated. This field should be used to apply content edits to the client's cached message history, or to apply rendered content updates.

These messages are guaranteed to have all been previously sent to channel `stream_id` with topic `orig_subject`, and have been moved to `new_stream_id` with topic `subject` (if those fields are present in the event). Clients processing these events should update all cached message history associated with the moved messages (including adjusting `unread_msgs` data structures, where the client may not have the message itself in its history) to reflect the new channel and topic. Content changes should be applied only to the single message indicated by `message_id`. flags: type: array description: | The user's personal [message flags][message-flags] for the message with ID `message_id` following the edit. A client application should compare these to the original flags to identify cases where a mention or alert word was added by the edit. **Changes**: In Zulip 8.0 (feature level 224), the `wildcard_mentioned` flag was deprecated in favor of the `stream_wildcard_mentioned` and `topic_wildcard_mentioned` flags. The `wildcard_mentioned` flag exists for backwards compatibility with older clients and equals `stream_wildcard_mentioned || topic_wildcard_mentioned`. Clients supporting older server versions should treat this field as a previous name for the `stream_wildcard_mentioned` flag as topic wildcard mentions were not available prior to this feature level.

This parameter should be used to decide whether to change navigation and compose box state in response to the edit. For example, if the user was previously in topic narrow, and the topic was edited with `"change_later"` or `"change_all"`, the Zulip web app will automatically navigate to the new topic narrow. Similarly, a message being composed to the old topic should have its recipient changed to the new topic. This navigation makes it much more convenient to move content between topics without disruption or messages continuing to be sent to the pre-edit topic by accident. enum: - change_one - change_later - change_all orig_subject: type: string description: | Only present if this event moved messages to a different topic and/or channel.

This can reflect a direct user action, or can be the indirect consequence of another action. Whatever the cause, if there's a change in the set of message flags that the user has for a message, then an `update_message_flags` event will be sent with the change. Note that this applies when the user already had access to the message, and continues to have access to it. When a message newly appears or disappears, a [`message`][message-event] or [`delete_message`][message-delete] event is sent instead. Some examples of actions that trigger an `update_message_flags` event: - The `"starred"` flag is added when the user chooses to [star a message](/help/star-a-message). - The `"read"` flag is added when the user marks messages as read by scrolling through them, or uses [Mark all messages as read][all-read] on a conversation. - The `"read"` flag is added when the user [mutes](/help/mute-a-user) a message's sender. - The `"read"` flag is added after the user unsubscribes from a channel, or messages are moved to a not-subscribed channel, provided the user can still access the messages at all. Note a [`delete_message`][message-delete] event is sent in the case where the user can no longer access the messages. In some cases, a change in message flags that's caused by another change may happen a short while after the original change, rather than simultaneously. For example, when messages that were unread are moved to a channel where the user is not subscribed, the resulting change in message flags (and the corresponding `update_message_flags` event with flag `"read"`) may happen later than the message move itself. The delay in that example is typically at most a few hundred milliseconds and can in rare cases be minutes or longer.

Because this endpoint marks messages as read in batches, it is possible for the request to time out after only marking some messages as read. When this happens, the `complete` boolean field in the success response will be `false`. Clients should repeat the request when handling such a response. If all messages were marked as read, then the success response will return `"complete": true`. **Changes**: Deprecated; clients should use the [update personal message flags for narrow](/api/update-message-flags-for-narrow) endpoint instead as this endpoint will be removed in a future release. Before Zulip 8.0 (feature level 211), if the server's processing was interrupted by a timeout, but some messages were marked as read, then it would return `"result": "partially_completed"`, along with a `code` field for an error string, in the success response to indicate that there was a timeout and that the client should repeat the request. Before Zulip 6.0 (feature level 153), this request did a single atomic operation, which could time out with 10,000s of unread messages to mark as read. As of this feature level, messages are marked as read in batches, starting with the newest messages, so that progress is made even if the request times out. And, instead of returning an error when the request times out and some messages have been marked as read, a success response with `"result": "partially_completed"` is returned. responses: "200": description: Success. content: application/json: schema: allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/JsonSuccessBase" - additionalProperties: false required: - complete properties: result: {} msg: {} ignored_parameters_unsupported: {} complete: type: boolean description: | Whether all unread messages were marked as read.

This endpoint is the primary way to fetch a user's message history from a Zulip server. It is useful both for Zulip clients (e.g. the web, desktop, mobile, and terminal clients) as well as bots, API clients, backup scripts, etc. Note that a user's message history does not contain messages sent to channels before they [subscribe](/api/subscribe), and newly created bot users are not usually subscribed to any channels. By specifying a [narrow filter](/api/get-messages#parameter-narrow), you can use this endpoint to fetch the messages matching any search query that is supported by Zulip's powerful full-text search backend. In either case, you specify an `anchor` message (or ask the server to calculate the first unread message for you and use that as the anchor), as well as a number of messages before and after the anchor message. The server returns those messages, sorted by message ID, as well as some metadata that makes it easy for a client to determine whether there are more messages matching the query that were not returned due to the `num_before` and `num_after` limits. We recommend setting `num_before` and `num_after` to no more than 1000, to avoid generating very large HTTP responses. A maximum of 5000 messages can be obtained per request; attempting to exceed this will result in an error. x-curl-examples-parameters: oneOf: - type: exclude parameters: enum: - client_gravatar - apply_markdown - use_first_unread_anchor - include_anchor parameters: - name: anchor in: query description: | Integer message ID to anchor fetching of new messages.

The `first_unread` functionality was supported in Zulip 2.1.x and older by not sending `anchor` and using `use_first_unread_anchor`.

See [searching shared history](/help/search-for-messages#searching-shared-history) for details. For example, if you would like to fetch messages from all public channels instead of only the user's message history, then a specific narrow for messages sent to all public channels can be used: `{"operator": "channels", "operand": "public"}`. Newly created bot users are not usually subscribed to any channels, so bots using this API should either be subscribed to appropriate channels or use a shared history search narrow with this endpoint. **Changes**: See [changes section](/api/construct-narrow#changes) of search/narrow filter documentation. content: application/json: schema: type: array items: oneOf: - type: object required: - operator - operand additionalProperties: false properties: operator: type: string operand: oneOf: - type: string - type: integer - type: array items: type: integer negated: type: boolean - type: array items: type: string minItems: 2 maxItems: 2 default: [] example: [{"operand": "Denmark", "operator": "channel"}] - $ref: "#/components/parameters/ClientGravatar" - name: apply_markdown in: query description: | If `true`, message content is returned in the rendered HTML format.

In Zulip 7.0 (feature level 174), `"direct"` was added as the preferred way to request a direct message, deprecating the original `"private"`. While `"private"` is still supported for requesting direct messages, clients are encouraged to use to the modern convention with servers that support it, because support for `"private"` will eventually be removed. type: string enum: - direct - channel - stream - private example: direct to: description: | For channel messages, either the name or integer ID of the channel.

Clients should use the `max_topic_length` returned by the [`POST /register`](/api/register-queue) endpoint to determine the maximum topic length. **Changes**: New in Zulip 2.0.0. Previous Zulip releases encoded this as `subject`, which is currently a deprecated alias. type: string example: Castle queue_id: type: string description: | For clients supporting [local echo](https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/subsystems/sending-messages.html#local-echo), the [event queue](/api/register-queue) ID for the client.

If the message is successfully sent, the server will include `local_id` in the `message` event that the client with this `queue_id` will receive notifying it of the new message via [`GET /events`](/api/get-events). This lets the client know unambiguously that it should replace the locally echoed message, rather than adding this new message (which would be correct if the user had sent the new message from another device). example: "fb67bf8a-c031-47cc-84cf-ed80accacda8" local_id: type: string description: | For clients supporting local echo, a unique string-format identifier chosen freely by the client; the server will pass it back to the client without inspecting it, as described in the `queue_id` description. example: "100.01" read_by_sender: type: boolean description: | Whether the message should be initially marked read by its sender.

Only present if the sender's visibility was in fact changed. The value can be either [unmuted or followed](/api/update-user-topic#parameter-visibility_policy). Clients will also be notified about the change in policy via a `user_topic` event as usual. This field is intended to be used by clients to explicitly inform the user when a topic's visibility policy was changed automatically due to sending a message. For example, the Zulip web application uses this field to decide whether to display a warning or notice suggesting to unmute the topic after sending a message to a muted channel. Such a notice would be confusing in the event that the act of sending the message had already resulted in the user automatically unmuting or following the topic in question. **Changes**: New in Zulip 8.0 (feature level 218). example: { "msg": "", "id": 42, "automatic_new_visibility_policy": 2, "result": "success", } "400": description: Bad request. content: application/json: schema: oneOf: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/NonExistingChannelNameError" - description: | A typical failed JSON response for when a channel message is sent to a channel that does not exist: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "code": "BAD_REQUEST", "msg": "Invalid email 'eeshan@zulip.com'", "result": "error", } description: | A typical failed JSON response for when a direct message is sent to a user that does not exist: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "result": "error", "msg": "You do not have permission to use channel wildcard mentions in this channel.", "code": "STREAM_WILDCARD_MENTION_NOT_ALLOWED", } description: | An example JSON error response for when the message was rejected because of the organization's `wildcard_mention_policy` and large number of subscribers to the channel. **Changes**: New in Zulip 8.0 (feature level 229).

| Flag | Purpose |
|---|---|
read |
Whether the user has read the message. Messages start out unread (except for messages the user themself sent using a non-API client) and can later be marked as read. |
starred |
Whether the user has starred this message. |
collapsed |
Whether the user has collapsed this message. |
mentioned |
Whether the current user was mentioned by this message, either directly or via a user group. Cannot be changed by the user directly, but can change if the message is edited to add/remove a mention of the current user. |
stream_wildcard_mentioned |
Whether this message contained a
channel wildcard mention
(like @**all**). Cannot be changed by the user directly, but
can change if the message is edited to add/remove
a channel wildcard mention.
Changes: New in Zulip 8.0 (feature level 224). |
topic_wildcard_mentioned |
Whether this message contained a
topic wildcard mention
(@**topic**).
Cannot be changed by the user directly, but can change if
the message is edited to add/remove a topic wildcard mention.
Changes: New in Zulip 8.0 (feature level 224). |
has_alert_word |
Whether the message contains any of the current user's configured alert words. Cannot be changed by the user directly, but can change if the message is edited to add/remove one of the current user's alert words. |
historical |
Is true for messages that the user did not receive
at the time they were sent but later was added to
the user's history (e.g. because they starred or
reacted to a message sent to a public channel
before they subscribed to that channel). Cannot be
changed by the user directly.
|
wildcard_mentioned |
Whether this message contained either a
channel wildcard mention
(like @**all**) or a
topic wildcard mention
(@**topic**). Cannot be changed by the user directly, but can change if
the message is edited to add/remove a channel and/or topic wildcard
mention.
Changes: Deprecated in Zulip 8.0 (feature level 224), in favor of the stream_wildcard_mentioned and
topic_wildcard_mentioned flags. The
wildcard_mentioned flag exists for backwards compatibility
with older clients and equals
stream_wildcard_mentioned || topic_wildcard_mentioned.
Clients supporting older server versions should treat this field as a
previous name for the stream_wildcard_mentioned flag as
topic wildcard mentions were not available prior to this feature level.

You can [resolve topics](/help/resolve-a-topic) by editing the topic to `✔ {original_topic}`. See [configuring message editing][config-message-editing] for detailed documentation on when users are allowed to edit message content and [restricting moving messages][restrict-move-messages] for detailed documentation on when users are allowed to change a message's topic and/or channel. The relevant realm settings in the API that are related to the above linked documentation on when users are allowed to update messages are: - `allow_message_editing` - `edit_topic_policy` - `move_messages_between_streams_policy` - `message_content_edit_limit_seconds` - `move_messages_within_stream_limit_seconds` - `move_messages_between_streams_limit_seconds` More details about these realm settings can be found in the [`POST /register`](/api/register-queue) response or in the documentation of the [`realm op: update_dict`](/api/get-events#realm-update_dict) event in [`GET /events`](/api/get-events). **Changes**: Prior to Zulip 7.0 (feature level 172), anyone could add a topic to channel messages without a topic, regardless of the organization's [topic editing permissions](/help/restrict-moving-messages). As of this feature level, messages without topics have the same restrictions for topic edits as messages with topics. Before Zulip 7.0 (feature level 172), by using the `change_all` value for the `propagate_mode` parameter, users could move messages after the organization's configured time limits for changing a message's topic or channel had passed. As of this feature level, the server will [return an error](/api/update-message#response) with `"code": "MOVE_MESSAGES_TIME_LIMIT_EXCEEDED"` if users, other than organization administrators or moderators, try to move messages after these time limits have passed. Before Zulip 7.0 (feature level 162), users who were not administrators or moderators could only edit topics if the target message was sent within the last 3 days. As of this feature level, that time limit is now controlled by the realm setting `move_messages_within_stream_limit_seconds`. Also at this feature level, a similar time limit for moving messages between channels was added, controlled by the realm setting `move_messages_between_streams_limit_seconds`. Previously, all users who had permission to move messages between channels did not have any time limit restrictions when doing so. Before Zulip 7.0 (feature level 159), editing channels and topics of messages was forbidden if the realm setting for `allow_message_editing` was `false`, regardless of an organization's configuration for the realm settings `edit_topic_policy` or `move_messages_between_streams_policy`. Before Zulip 7.0 (feature level 159), message senders were allowed to edit the topic of their messages indefinitely.

This happens when the topic contains some messages that are older than an applicable time limit for the requested topic move (see `move_messages_within_stream_limit_seconds` and/or `move_messages_between_streams_limit_seconds` in the [`POST /register`](/api/register-queue) response). The error response contains data on which portion of this topic the user has permission to move. `first_message_id_allowed_to_move` is the oldest message ID in this topic that the user has permission to move. There are `total_messages_in_topic` in the topic, but the user only has permission to move the (most recent) `total_messages_allowed_to_move` messages. Clients should support this error code with `"first_message_id_allowed_to_move": null` for forward compatibility with future server versions that may use this error code with other propagation modes where the user does not have permission to move any messages, or where the server did not calculate the total message counts noted above. Clients can either only present the error to the user or, if `first_message_id_allowed_to_move` is not `null`, prompt the user to adjust their query with the above information. If clients choose to present a prompt for this error code, they should recommend the option of cancelling and (manually) asking a moderator to move the entire topic, since that's often a better experience than partially moving a topic. This API supports a client that wishes to allow the user to repeat the request with a `change_later` propagation mode and a target message ID of `first_message_id_allowed_to_move`, if the user desires to move only the portion of the topic that they can. Note that in a channel with [protected history](/help/channel-permissions), the Zulip security model requires that the above calculations only include messages the acting user has access to. So in the rare case of a user attempting to move a topic that started before the user joined a private channel with protected history, this API endpoint might move only the portion of a topic that they have access to, without this error or any confirmation dialog. **Changes**: New in Zulip 7.0 (feature level 172). - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "result": "error", "msg": "You do not have permission to use channel wildcard mentions in this channel.", "code": "STREAM_WILDCARD_MENTION_NOT_ALLOWED", } description: | An example JSON error response for when the message was rejected because of the organization's `wildcard_mention_policy` and large number of subscribers to the channel. **Changes**: New in Zulip 8.0 (feature level 229).

This endpoint is meant to be used by clients for both: - Reporting the current user's presence status (`"active"` or `"idle"`) to the server. - Obtaining the presence data of all other users in the organization via regular polling (in parallel with receiving [`presence` events](/api/get-events#presence)). Accurate user presence is one of the most expensive parts of any chat application (in terms of bandwidth and other resources). Therefore, it is important that clients implementing Zulip's user presence system use the modern [`last_update_id`](#parameter-last_update_id) protocol to minimize fetching duplicate user presence data. See [Zulip's developer documentation][subsystems-presence] for details on the data model for user presence in Zulip. The Zulip server is responsible for implementing [invisible mode][invisible], which disables sharing a user's presence data. Nonetheless, clients should check the `presence_enabled` field in user objects in order to display the current user as online or offline based on whether they are sharing their presence information. **Changes**: As of Zulip 8.0 (feature level 228), if the `CAN_ACCESS_ALL_USERS_GROUP_LIMITS_PRESENCE` server-level setting is `true`, then user presence data in the response is [limited to users the current user can see/access][limit-visibility]. [subsystems-presence]: https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/subsystems/presence.html [limit-visibility]: /help/guest-users#configure-whether-guests-can-see-all-other-users [invisible]: /help/status-and-availability#invisible-mode [availability]: /help/status-and-availability#availability requestBody: required: true content: application/x-www-form-urlencoded: schema: type: object properties: last_update_id: type: integer description: | The identifier that specifies what presence data the client already has received, which allows the server to only return more recent user presence data. This should be set to `-1` during initialization of the client in order to fetch all user presence data, unless the client is obtaining initial user presence metadata from the [`POST /register`](/api/register-queue) endpoint. In subsequent queries to this endpoint, this value should be set to the most recent value of `presence_last_update_id` returned by the server in this endpoint's response, which implements incremental fetching of user presence data. When this parameter is passed, the user presence data in the response will always be in the modern format. **Changes**: New in Zulip 9.0 (feature level 263). Previously, the server sent user presence data for all users who had been active in the last two weeks unconditionally. example: 5 new_user_input: type: boolean description: | Whether the user has interacted with the client (e.g. moved the mouse, used the keyboard, etc.) since the previous presence request from this client. The server uses data from this parameter to implement certain [usage statistics](/help/analytics). User interface clients that might run in the background, without the user ever interacting with them, should be careful to only pass `true` if the user has actually interacted with the client in order to avoid corrupting usage statistics graphs. example: false default: false ping_only: type: boolean description: | Whether the client is sending a ping-only request, meaning it only wants to update the user's presence `status` on the server. Otherwise, also requests the server return user presence data for all users in the organization, which is further specified by the [`last_update_id`](#parameter-last_update_id) parameter. example: false default: false slim_presence: type: boolean description: | Legacy parameter for configuring the format (modern or legacy) in which the server will return user presence data for the organization. Modern clients should use [`last_update_id`](#parameter-last_update_id), which guarantees that user presence data will be returned in the modern format, and should not pass this parameter as `true` unless interacting with an older server. Legacy clients that do not yet support `last_update_id` may use the value of `true` to request the modern format for user presence data. **Note**: The legacy format for user presence data will be removed entirely in a future release. **Changes**: **Deprecated** in Zulip 9.0 (feature level 263). Using the modern `last_update_id` parameter is the recommended way to request the modern format for user presence data. New in Zulip 3.0 (no feature level as it was an unstable API at that point). example: false default: false deprecated: true status: type: string enum: - idle - active description: | The status of the user on this client. Clients should report the user as `"active"` on this device if the client knows that the user is presently using the device (and thus would potentially see a notification immediately), even if the user has not directly interacted with the Zulip client. Otherwise, it should report the user as `"idle"`. See the related [`new_user_input`](#parameter-new_user_input) parameter for how a client should report whether the user is actively using the Zulip client. example: active required: - status responses: "200": description: Success. content: application/json: schema: allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/JsonSuccessBase" - additionalProperties: false required: - result - msg properties: result: {} msg: {} ignored_parameters_unsupported: {} presence_last_update_id: type: integer description: | The identifier for the latest user presence data returned in the `presences` data of the response. If a value was passed for `last_update_id`, then this is guaranteed to be equal to or greater than that value. If it is the same value, then that indicates to the client that there were no updates to previously received user presence data. The client should then pass this value as the `last_update_id` parameter when it next queries this endpoint, in order to only receive new user presence data and avoid redundantly fetching already known information. This will be `-1` if no value was passed for [`last_update_id`](#parameter-last_update_id) and no user presence data was returned by the server. This can happen, for example, if an organization has disabled presence. **Changes**: New in Zulip 9.0 (feature level 263). server_timestamp: type: number description: | Only present if `ping_only` is `false`. The time when the server fetched the `presences` data included in the response. presences: type: object description: | Only present if `ping_only` is `false`. A dictionary where each entry describes the presence details of a user in the Zulip organization. Entries can be in either the modern presence format or the legacy presence format. These entries will be the modern presence format when the `last_updated_id` parameter is passed, or when the deprecated `slim_presence` parameter is `true`. If the deprecated `slim_presence` parameter is `false` and the `last_updated_id` parameter is omitted, the entries will be in the legacy presence API format. **Note**: The legacy presence format should only be used when interacting with old servers. It will be removed as soon as doing so is practical. additionalProperties: description: | Will be one of these two formats (modern or legacy) for user presence data: oneOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/ModernPresenceFormat" - type: object description: | `{user_email}`: Presence data (legacy format) for the user with the specified Zulip API email. additionalProperties: $ref: "#/components/schemas/LegacyPresenceFormat" zephyr_mirror_active: type: boolean deprecated: true description: | Legacy property for a part of the Zephyr mirroring system. **Deprecated**.

A request to this endpoint will only change the parameters passed. For example, passing just `status_text` requests a change in the status text, but will leave the status emoji unchanged. Clients that wish to set the user's status to a specific value should pass all supported parameters. **Changes**: In Zulip 5.0 (feature level 86), added support for `emoji_name`, `emoji_code`, and `reaction_type` parameters. requestBody: required: false content: application/x-www-form-urlencoded: schema: type: object properties: status_text: type: string description: | The text content of the status message. Sending the empty string will clear the user's status. **Note**: The limit on the size of the message is 60 characters. example: on vacation away: deprecated: true type: boolean description: | Whether the user should be marked as "away". **Changes**: Deprecated in Zulip 6.0 (feature level 148); starting with that feature level, `away` is a legacy way to access the user's `presence_enabled` setting, with `away = !presence_enabled`.

In addition to managing the current user's subscriptions, this endpoint can be used to remove other users from channels. This is possible in 3 situations: - Organization administrators can remove any user from any channel. - Users can remove a bot that they own from any channel that the user [can access](/help/channel-permissions). - Users can unsubscribe any user from a channel if they [have access](/help/channel-permissions) to the channel and are a member of the [user group](/api/get-user-groups) specified by the [`can_remove_subscribers_group`][can-remove-parameter] for the channel. **Changes**: Before Zulip 8.0 (feature level 208), if a user specified by the [`principals`][principals-param] parameter was a deactivated user, or did not exist, then an HTTP status code of 403 was returned with `code: "UNAUTHORIZED_PRINCIPAL"` in the error response. As of this feature level, an HTTP status code of 400 is returned with `code: "BAD_REQUEST"` in the error response for these cases. Before Zulip 8.0 (feature level 197), the `can_remove_subscribers_group` setting was named `can_remove_subscribers_group_id`. Before Zulip 7.0 (feature level 161), the `can_remove_subscribers_group_id` for all channels was always the system group for organization administrators. Before Zulip 6.0 (feature level 145), users had no special privileges for managing bots that they own.

One-on-one direct messages sent by muted users should be hidden everywhere in the Zulip UI. - Channel messages and group direct messages sent by the muted user should avoid displaying the content and name/avatar, but should display that N messages by a muted user were hidden (so that it is possible to interpret the messages by other users who are talking with the muted user). - Group direct message conversations including the muted user should display muted users as "Muted user", rather than showing their name, in lists of such conversations, along with using a blank grey avatar where avatars are displayed. - Administrative/settings UI elements for showing "All users that exist on this channel or realm", e.g. for organization administration or showing channel subscribers, should display the user's name as normal. **Changes**: New in Zulip 4.0 (feature level 48). parameters: - $ref: "#/components/parameters/MutedUserId" responses: "200": $ref: "#/components/responses/SimpleSuccess" "400": description: Bad request. content: application/json: schema: oneOf: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "code": "BAD_REQUEST", "msg": "Cannot mute self", "result": "error", } description: | An example JSON response for when the user ID is the current user's ID: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "code": "BAD_REQUEST", "msg": "No such user", "result": "error", } description: | An example JSON response for when the user is nonexistent or inaccessible: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "code": "BAD_REQUEST", "msg": "User already muted", "result": "error", } description: | An example JSON response for when the user is already muted: delete: operationId: unmute-user summary: Unmute a user tags: ["users"] description: | [Unmute a user](/help/mute-a-user#see-your-list-of-muted-users) from the perspective of the requesting user. **Changes**: New in Zulip 4.0 (feature level 48). parameters: - $ref: "#/components/parameters/MutedUserId" responses: "200": $ref: "#/components/responses/SimpleSuccess" "400": description: Bad request. content: application/json: schema: oneOf: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "code": "BAD_REQUEST", "msg": "No such user", "result": "error", } description: | An example JSON response for when the user is nonexistent or inaccessible: - allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/CodedError" - example: { "code": "BAD_REQUEST", "msg": "User is not muted", "result": "error", } description: | An example JSON response for when the user is not previously muted: /users/me/apns_device_token: post: operationId: add-apns-token summary: Add an APNs device token tags: ["users"] description: | This endpoint adds an APNs device token to register for iOS push notifications. requestBody: required: true content: application/x-www-form-urlencoded: schema: type: object properties: token: description: | The token provided by the device. type: string example: apple-tokenbb appid: description: | The ID of the Zulip app that is making the request. **Changes**: In Zulip 8.0 (feature level 223), this parameter was made required.

Note that creating web-public channels requires the `WEB_PUBLIC_STREAMS_ENABLED` [server setting][server-settings] to be enabled on the Zulip server in question, the organization to have enabled the `enable_spectator_access` realm setting, and the current use to have permission under the organization's `can_create_web_public_channel_group` realm setting.

Corresponds to the [shared history](/help/channel-permissions) option in documentation. It's an error for this parameter to be false for a public or web-public channel and when is_private is false. **Changes**: Before Zulip 6.0 (feature level 136), `history_public_to_subscribers` was silently ignored unless the request also contained either `is_private` or `is_web_public`. type: boolean example: false is_default_stream: description: | Add or remove the channel as a [default channel][default-channel] for new users joining the organization.

Topics are a field on messages (not an independent data structure), so deleting all the messages in the topic deletes the topic from Zulip. Because this endpoint deletes messages in batches, it is possible for the request to time out after only deleting some messages in the topic. When this happens, the `complete` boolean field in the success response will be `false`. Clients should repeat the request when handling such a response. If all messages in the topic were deleted, then the success response will return `"complete": true`. **Changes**: Before Zulip 9.0 (feature level 256), the server never sent [`stream` op: `update`](/api/get-events#stream-update) events with an updated `first_message_id` for a channel when the oldest message that had been sent to it changed. Before Zulip 8.0 (feature level 211), if the server's processing was interrupted by a timeout, but some messages in the topic were deleted, then it would return `"result": "partially_completed"`, along with a `code` field for an error string, in the success response to indicate that there was a timeout and that the client should repeat the request. As of Zulip 6.0 (feature level 154), instead of returning an error response when a request times out after successfully deleting some of the messages in the topic, a success response is returned with `"result": "partially_completed"` to indicate that some messages were deleted. Before Zulip 6.0 (feature level 147), this request did a single atomic operation, which could time out for very large topics. As of this feature level, messages are deleted in batches, starting with the newest messages, so that progress is made even if the request times out and returns an error. x-requires-administrator: true parameters: - $ref: "#/components/parameters/ChannelIdInPath" requestBody: required: true content: application/x-www-form-urlencoded: schema: type: object properties: topic_name: description: | The name of the topic to delete. type: string example: new coffee machine required: - topic_name responses: "200": description: Success. content: application/json: schema: allOf: - $ref: "#/components/schemas/JsonSuccessBase" - additionalProperties: false required: - complete properties: result: {} msg: {} ignored_parameters_unsupported: {} complete: type: boolean description: | Whether all unread messages were marked as read.

Clients implementing Zulip's typing notifications protocol should work as follows: - Send a request to this endpoint with `"op": "start"` when a user starts composing a message. - While the user continues to actively type or otherwise interact with the compose UI (e.g. interacting with the compose box emoji picker), send regular `"op": "start"` requests to this endpoint, using `server_typing_started_wait_period_milliseconds` in the [`POST /register`][api-register] response as the time interval between each request. - Send a request to this endpoint with `"op": "stop"` when a user has stopped using the compose UI for the time period indicated by `server_typing_stopped_wait_period_milliseconds` in the [`POST /register`][api-register] response or when a user cancels the compose action (if it had previously sent a "start" notification for that compose action). - Start displaying a visual typing indicator for a given conversation when a [`typing op:start`][start-typing] event is received from the server. - Continue displaying a visual typing indicator for the conversation until a [`typing op:stop`][stop-typing] event is received from the server or the time period indicated by `server_typing_started_expiry_period_milliseconds` in the [`POST /register`][api-register] response has passed without a new `typing "op": "start"` event for the conversation. This protocol is designed to allow the server-side typing notifications implementation to be stateless while being resilient as network failures will not result in a user being incorrectly displayed as perpetually typing. See the subsystems documentation on [typing indicators][typing-protocol-docs] for additional design details on Zulip's typing notifications protocol. **Changes**: Clients shouldn't care about the APIs prior to Zulip 8.0 (feature level 215) for channel typing notifications, as no client actually implemented the previous API for those. Support for displaying channel typing notifications was new in Zulip 4.0 (feature level 58). Clients should indicate they support processing channel typing notifications via the `stream_typing_notifications` value in the `client_capabilities` parameter of the [`POST /register`][client-capabilities] endpoint. [help-typing]: /help/typing-notifications [api-register]: /api/register-queue [start-typing]: /api/get-events#typing-start [stop-typing]: /api/get-events#typing-stop [client-capabilities]: /api/register-queue#parameter-client_capabilities [typing-protocol-docs]: https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/subsystems/typing-indicators.html x-curl-examples-parameters: oneOf: - type: exclude parameters: enum: - topic requestBody: required: true content: application/x-www-form-urlencoded: schema: type: object properties: type: description: | Type of the message being composed. **Changes**: In Zulip 9.0 (feature level 248), `"channel"` was added as an additional value for this parameter to indicate a channel message is being composed. In Zulip 8.0 (feature level 215), stopped supporting `"private"` as a valid value for this parameter. In Zulip 7.0 (feature level 174), `"direct"` was added as the preferred way to indicate a direct message is being composed, becoming the default value for this parameter and deprecating the original `"private"`. New in Zulip 4.0 (feature level 58). Previously, typing notifications were only for direct messages. type: string enum: - direct - stream - channel default: direct example: direct op: description: | Whether the user has started (`"start"`) or stopped (`"stop"`) typing. type: string enum: - start - stop example: start to: description: | User IDs of the recipients of the message being typed. Required for the `"direct"` type. Ignored in the case of `"stream"` or `"channel"` type. Clients should send a JSON-encoded list of user IDs, even if there is only one recipient. **Changes**: In Zulip 8.0 (feature level 215), stopped using this parameter for the `"stream"` type. Previously, in the case of the `"stream"` type, it accepted a single-element list containing the ID of the channel. A new parameter, `stream_id`, is now used for this. Note that the `"channel"` type did not exist at this feature level. Support for typing notifications for channel' messages is new in Zulip 4.0 (feature level 58). Previously, typing notifications were only for direct messages. Before Zulip 2.0.0, this parameter accepted only a JSON-encoded list of email addresses. Support for the email address-based format was removed in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 11). type: array items: type: integer minLength: 1 example: [9, 10] stream_id: description: | ID of the channel in which the message is being typed.

Clients should display users with a current `active_timestamp` as fully present. idle_timestamp: type: integer description: | The UNIX timestamp of the last time the user had a client connected to Zulip, including idle clients where the user hasn't interacted with the system recently. The Zulip server has no way of distinguishing whether an idle web app user is at their computer, but hasn't interacted with the Zulip tab recently, or simply left their desktop computer on when they left. Thus, clients should display users with a current `idle_timestamp` but no current `active_timestamp` as potentially present.

This value will be `null` if you cannot access user's real email address. For bot users, this field is always set to the real email of the bot, because bot users always have `email_address_visibility` set to everyone. **Changes**: Prior to Zulip 7.0 (feature level 163), this field was present only when `email_address_visibility` was restricted and you had access to the user's real email. As of this feature level, this field is always present, including the case when `email_address_visibility` is set to everyone (and therefore not restricted). email: type: string description: | The Zulip API email address of the user or bot.

Values that you might find useful include: - **message** (messages) - **subscription** (changes in your subscriptions) - **realm_user** (changes to users in the organization and their properties, such as their name). If you do not specify this parameter, you will receive all events, and have to filter out the events not relevant to your client in your client code. For most applications, one is only interested in messages, so one specifies: `"event_types": ["message"]` Event types not supported by the server are ignored, in order to simplify the implementation of client apps that support multiple server versions. type: array items: type: string example: ["message"] Narrow: description: | A JSON-encoded array of arrays of length 2 indicating the [narrow filter(s)](/api/construct-narrow) for which you'd like to receive events for. For example, to receive events for direct messages (including group direct messages) received by the user, one can use `"narrow": [["is", "dm"]]`. Unlike the API for [fetching messages](/api/get-messages), this narrow parameter is simply a filter on messages that the user receives through their channel subscriptions (or because they are a recipient of a direct message). This means that a client that requests a `narrow` filter of `[["channel", "Denmark"]]` will receive events for new messages sent to that channel while the user is subscribed to that channel. The client will not receive any message events at all if the user is not subscribed to `"Denmark"`. Newly created bot users are not usually subscribed to any channels, so bots using this API need to be [subscribed](/api/subscribe) to any channels whose messages you'd like them to process using this endpoint. See the `all_public_streams` parameter for how to process all public channel messages in an organization. **Changes**: See [changes section](/api/construct-narrow#changes) of search/narrow filter documentation. type: array items: type: array items: type: string default: [] example: [["channel", "Denmark"]] AllPublicChannels: description: | Whether you would like to request message events from all public channels. Useful for workflow bots that you'd like to see all new messages sent to public channels. (You can also subscribe the user to private channels). type: boolean default: false example: true RequiredContent: description: | The content of the message. Clients should use the `max_message_length` returned by the [`POST /register`](/api/register-queue) endpoint to determine the maximum message size. type: string example: Hello OptionalContent: description: | The updated content of the target message. Clients should use the `max_message_length` returned by the [`POST /register`](/api/register-queue) endpoint to determine the maximum message size. Note that a message's content and channel cannot be changed at the same time, so sending both `content` and `stream_id` parameters will throw an error. type: string example: Hello ChannelPostPolicy: description: | [Policy][permission-level] for which users can post messages to the channel. - 1 = Any user can post. - 2 = Only administrators can post. - 3 = Only [full members][calc-full-member] can post. - 4 = Only moderators can post. **Changes**: New in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 1), replacing the previous `is_announcement_only` boolean. [permission-level]: /api/roles-and-permissions#permission-levels [calc-full-member]: /api/roles-and-permissions#determining-if-a-user-is-a-full-member type: integer default: 1 example: 2 HistoryPublicToSubscribers: description: | Whether the channel's message history should be available to newly subscribed members, or users can only access messages they actually received while subscribed to the channel. Corresponds to the [shared history](/help/channel-permissions) option in documentation. type: boolean example: false Principals: description: | A list of user IDs (preferred) or Zulip API email addresses of the users to be subscribed to or unsubscribed from the channels specified in the `subscriptions` parameter. If not provided, then the requesting user/bot is subscribed. **Changes**: The integer format is new in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 9). oneOf: - type: array items: type: string - type: array items: type: integer example: ["ZOE@zulip.com"] ReactionType: description: | A string indicating the type of emoji. Each emoji `reaction_type` has an independent namespace for values of `emoji_code`. If an API client is adding/removing a vote on an existing reaction, it should pass this parameter using the value the server provided for the existing reaction for specificity. Supported values: - `unicode_emoji` : In this namespace, `emoji_code` will be a dash-separated hex encoding of the sequence of Unicode codepoints that define this emoji in the Unicode specification. - `realm_emoji` : In this namespace, `emoji_code` will be the ID of the uploaded [custom emoji](/help/custom-emoji). - `zulip_extra_emoji` : These are special emoji included with Zulip. In this namespace, `emoji_code` will be the name of the emoji (e.g. "zulip"). **Changes**: In Zulip 3.0 (feature level 2), this parameter became optional for [custom emoji](/help/custom-emoji); previously, this endpoint assumed `unicode_emoji` if this parameter was not specified. type: string example: "unicode_emoji" EmojiCode: description: | A unique identifier, defining the specific emoji codepoint requested, within the namespace of the `reaction_type`. For most API clients, you won't need this, but it's important for Zulip apps to handle rare corner cases when adding/removing votes on an emoji reaction added previously by another user. If the existing reaction was added when the Zulip server was using a previous version of the emoji data mapping between Unicode codepoints and human-readable names, sending the `emoji_code` in the data for the original reaction allows the Zulip server to correctly interpret your upvote as an upvote rather than a reaction with a "different" emoji. type: string example: "1f419" MessageRetentionDays: description: | Number of days that messages sent to this channel will be stored before being automatically deleted by the [message retention policy](/help/message-retention-policy). Two special string format values are supported: - `"realm_default"`: Return to the organization-level setting. - `"unlimited"`: Retain messages forever. **Changes**: Prior to Zulip 5.0 (feature level 91), retaining messages forever was encoded using `"forever"` instead of `"unlimited"`. New in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 17). oneOf: - type: string - type: integer example: "20" CanRemoveSubscribersGroupId: description: | ID of the [user group](/api/get-user-groups) whose members are allowed to unsubscribe others from the channel. Note that a user who is a member of the specified user group must also [have access](/help/channel-permissions) to the channel in order to unsubscribe others. This setting can currently only be set to user groups that are system groups, except for the system groups named `"role:internet"` and `"role:owners"`. **Changes**: Before Zulip 8.0 (feature level 197), the `can_remove_subscribers_group` setting was named `can_remove_subscribers_group_id`. New in Zulip 7.0 (feature level 161). type: integer example: 20 LinkifierPattern: description: | The [Python regular expression](https://docs.python.org/3/howto/regex.html) that should trigger the linkifier. type: string example: "#(?P
