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.

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);
  }
);

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

Parameter Description
group an instance of class Group

After a successful update of the group, you will receive an instance of Group class containing update information of the group.
