Before Group Message Is Sent

Last updated: 2024-02-07 17:30:51

    Feature Overview

    This webhook event is used by the app backend to check users' group messages in real time, including:
    Records group messages in real time, for example, by recording a log or synchronizing the messages to other systems.
    Blocks users' requests to send messages in a group.
    Caution:
    The timeout period of the webhook before message sending is two seconds by default, and we recommend you not adjust it. This webhook may time out when used for text moderation. If you need to moderate text, use the content webhook.

    Limits

    To enable this webhook, you must configure a webhook URL and enable the corresponding switch for this webhook. For more information on the configuration method, see Webhook Configuration.
    During this webhook event, the Chat backend initiates an HTTP POST request to the app backend.
    After receiving the webhook request, the app backend must check whether the SDKAppID contained in the request URL is the SDKAppID of the app.
    For more security considerations, see the Security Considerations section in Webhook Overview.

    Webhook Triggering Scenarios

    An app user sends a group message on the client.
    The app admin sends a group message via RESTful APIs.

    Webhook Triggering Timing

    The webhook is triggered before the Chat backend sends a group message to group members.

    Sample response

    Allowing group message sending

    The user is allowed to send group messages, and the content of the message is not modified.
    {
    "ActionStatus": "OK",
    "ErrorInfo": "",
    "ErrorCode": 0 // `0` indicates the user is allowed to send messages.
    }

    Forbidding group message sending

    The user is not allowed to send group messages. In this case, the message is not sent, and the error code 10016 is returned to the caller.
    {
    "ActionStatus": "OK",
    "ErrorInfo": "",
    "ErrorCode": 1 // `1` indicates that the user is not allowed to send messages.
    }

    Discarding messages silently

    The user is not allowed to send group messages. In this case, the message is not sent, but a success message will be returned to the caller.
    {
    "ActionStatus": "OK",
    "ErrorInfo": "",
    "ErrorCode": 2 // The value `2` indicates the message is silently discarded.
    }

    Modifying the message content

    In the following response sample, the group message sent by the user is modified (a custom message is added), and the Chat backend will send the modified message. With this feature, the app backend can add special content, such as the user level and title, to the message sent by the user.
    {
    "ActionStatus": "OK",
    "ErrorInfo": "",
    "ErrorCode": 0, // This field must be set to `0` so that the modified message can be sent normally.
    "MsgBody": [ // Message modified by the app backend. If the app backend does not modify the message, the message sent by the user is delivered.
    {
    "MsgType": "TIMTextElem", // Text
    "MsgContent":{
    "Text": "red packet"
    }
    },
    {
    "MsgType": "TIMCustomElem", // Custom message
    "MsgContent":{
    "Desc": "CustomElement.MemberLevel", // Description
    "Data": "LV1" // Data
    }
    }
    ],
    "CloudCustomData": "your cloud custom data"
    }
