Roles & Permissions

AmityClient class provides a method hasPermission which allows you to check if the current logged-in user has permission to do stuff in a given channel.

We determine a user's moderation capabilities based on their current role. Social Plus SDK has the following default roles:

1. Member - has no moderation privileges

2. Community/Channel Moderator - can assert general moderation privileges on other users

3. Super Moderator - can assert general moderation privileges and be exempt from moderation from other users

4. Global Admin (Admin Only) - can assign the roles of others, assert all moderation privileges, and be exempt from moderation

A user's role can be changed via the Console. Refer to Moderation, Roles & Privileges for the instructions on how to change a user's role.

The Global Admin role cannot be assigned to a user.

Below are tables for each category that show the default roles and permissions. You can create new roles and assign a specific set of permissions for each role in the SP Console. Refer to Moderation, Roles & Privileges.
