Hello @Funny_Cat

Welcome to the Sendbird community!

If you are getting undefined when adding the group channel event handler in your React JS app, there could be a few possible reasons for this issue. Here are some suggestions to troubleshoot the problem:

  1. Make sure you have initialized the Sendbird Chat SDK properly before adding the event handler. Check if you have called the SendbirdChat.init() method with the correct appId and modules parameters. Also, ensure that you have imported the necessary modules correctly.
  2. Verify that you have imported the GroupChannelHandler class from the @sendbird/chat/groupchannel module correctly. Double-check the import statement and ensure that the module is installed in your project.
  3. Check if the sb.groupChannel object is defined before adding the event handler. It’s possible that the sb.groupChannel object is not initialized properly or is not available at the time of adding the event handler. You can add a null check before adding the event handler to avoid any errors.

If the issue persists, please provide more details about your code implementation, including the initialisation process and where you are adding the event handler.
