AmityClient class provides a method hasPermission which allows you to check if the current logged in user has permission to do stuff in given channel.
We determine a user's moderation capabilities based on their current role. Amity SDK has the following default roles:
Member - has no moderation privileges
Community/Channel Moderator - can assert general moderation privileges on other users
Super Moderator - can assert general moderation privileges and be exempt from moderation from other users
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 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 ASC Console. Refer to Moderation, Roles & Privileges.
| Permission | Global Admin | Super Moderator | Community Moderator | Channel Moderator |
|---|---|---|---|---|
*UserV3
*ChannelV3
*CommunityV3
There is no limit to the number of moderators in a community. If there are 100 members in the community, all 100 members can be promoted to moderator. Promoting a user to a community-level moderator can be done using the Update Role API or through the SDK.
Each role can be assigned with many permissions. Below is a list of all the possible permissions that can be assigned to a user.
| Permission | Global Admin | Super Moderator | Community Moderator | Channel Moderator |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Permission | Global Admin | Super Moderator | Community Moderator | Channel Moderator |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Permission | Global Admin | Super Moderator | Community Moderator | Channel Moderator |
