Are you able to add to the emoji library to allow users to react to a chat message?

Hi and welcome to the Sendbird Community!!

Of course you can!

First, you start by creating an Emoji category. Learn more about this step in this section of our documentation.

Then by using the Emoji category ID that you just created, you can add emojis to it. Learn more about this step in this section of our documentation.

Lastly, you can display those emojis as options in your front-end (i.e. Android, iOS or Web App) using our SDK for the specific platform. For example in JavaScript you can use the getEmojiCategory method of the JavaScript SDK.
