}

channel.delete(function(response, error) {
    if (error) {
        // Handle error
	console.log(error);

Hi @11110 ,

Even though the user created it via the SDK, unless you specifically set them as an Operator on creation, they are not considered one, and thus can’t delete the channel. You would want to ensure you set them as an operator when you create the channel adding the operatorUserIds key to your GroupChannelParams

For example, you may do this:

const params = new sb.GroupChannelParams();
params.addUserIds(['John', 'Harry']);
params.operatorUserIds = ['Jay']; 

sb.GroupChannel.createChannel(params, function(groupChannel, error) {
    if (error) {
        // Handle error.
    }
    const channeUrl = groupChannel.channelUrl;
});
