I have a use case in which I’d like to restrict who a user can create a channel with. Essentially I’d like to enforce a parent child relationship where the “parent” can start a channel with each “child”, but the children can only create channels with the “parent” (and cannot start channels with their “brothers” & “sisters”).
I’m using the Platform API to create users & supply access tokens to the front end Sendbird React UI Kit. I’ve currently got a semi working version of this by specifying a userListQuery to the sendBirdProvider by making an API call specific to each user, to tell the front-end who they can start a channel with. This restricts channel creation purely by filtering which users are available on the front, but I was wondering if is was possible to re-enforce this on the backend. (To protect myself against someone spoofing the request I’m using to create the userList & giving them access to start a chat with any user in the application).
Thanks!
