Users export
Stream allows you to export users with their data, including the calls they participated in.
# request data export for multiple users at once client.export_users(user_ids=["<user id1>", "<user id1>"])// request data export for multiple users at once response, err := client.ExportUsers(ctx, &getstream.ExportUsersRequest{ UserIds: []string{"user1", "user2"}, })Exporting users is an async operation, this is how you can check the progress and retrieve the result:
// Example of monitoring the status of an async task // The logic is same for all async tasks const response = await client.exportUsers({ user_ids: ["<user id1>", "<user id1>"], }); // you need to poll this endpoint const taskResponse = await client.getTask({ id: response.task_id }); console.log(taskResponse.status === "completed");# Example of monitoring the status of an async task # The logic is same for all async tasks response = client.export_users(user_ids=["<user id1>", "<user id1>"]) task_id = response.data.task_id # get information about the task task_status = client.get_task(task_id) # just an example, in reality it can take a few seconds for a task to be processed if task_status.data.status == "completed": print(task_status.data.result)// Example of monitoring the status of an async task // The logic is same for all async tasks response, err := client.ExportUsers(ctx, &getstream.ExportUsersRequest{ UserIds: []string{"<user id1>", "<user id1>"}, }) taskID := response.Data.TaskID // get information about the task taskStatus, err := client.GetTask(ctx, taskID, &getstream.GetTaskRequest{}) // just an example, in reality it can take a few seconds for a task to be processed if taskStatus.Data.Status == "completed" { println("Export is completed") }var response = client.exportUsers(ExportUsersRequest.builder().userIds(List.of("user-id1", "user-id2")).build()).execute(); var taskID = response.getData().getTaskID(); // get information about the task var taskStatus = client.getTask(taskID).execute(); // just an example, in reality it can take a few seconds for a task to be processed if (taskStatus.getData().getStatus().equals("completed")) { System.out.println("Export is completed"); }# When an operation is async, a task_id will be included in the API response # That task_id can be used to monitor the status of the task # When finished, task status will be completed curl -X GET https://video.stream-io-api.com/api/v2/tasks/${TASK_ID}?api_key=${API_KEY} \ -H "Authorization: ${TOKEN}" \ -H "stream-auth-type: jwt"For more information, please refer to the async operations guide.
Users deletion
Stream allows you to delete users and optionally the calls they were part of.
Note that this apply only to 1:1 calls, not group calls.
client.deleteUsers({ user_ids: ["<id>"] }); //restore client.restoreUsers({ user_ids: ["<id>"] });client.delete_users(user_ids=["<id>"]) # restore client.restore_users(user_ids=["<id>"])response, err := client.DeleteUsers(ctx, &getstream.DeleteUsersRequest{UserIds: []string{"<id>"}}) // restore a soft-deleted user _, err = client.RestoreUsers(ctx, &getstream.RestoreUsersRequest{UserIds: []string{"<id>"}})client.deleteUsers(DeleteUsersRequest.builder().userIds(List.of("user-id1", "user-id2")).build()).execute(); // restore a soft-deleted users client.restoreUsers(RestoreUsersRequest.builder().userIds(List.of("user-id1", "user-id2")).build()).execute();# Delete users curl -X POST https://video.stream-io-api.com/api/v2/users/delete?api_key=${API_KEY} \ -H "Authorization: ${TOKEN}" \ -H "stream-auth-type: jwt" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "user_ids": ["sara"] }' # Restore users curl -X POST https://video.stream-io-api.com/api/v2/users/restore?api_key=${API_KEY} \ -H "Authorization: ${TOKEN}" \ -H "stream-auth-type: jwt" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "user_ids": ["sara"] }'The delete users endpoints supports the following parameters to control which data needs to be deleted and how. By default users and their data are soft-deleted.
| Name | Type | Description | Optional |
|---|---|---|---|
user | Enum (soft, pruning, hard) | - Soft: marks user as deleted and retains all user data. - Pruning: marks user as deleted and nullifies user information. - Hard: deletes user completely - this requires hard option for messages and conversation as well. | Yes |
conversations | Enum (soft, hard) | - Soft: marks all conversation channels as deleted (same effect as Delete Channels with ‘hard’ option disabled). - Hard: deletes channel and all its data completely including messages (same effect as Delete Channels with ‘hard’ option enabled). | Yes |
messages | Enum (soft, pruning, hard) | - Soft: marks all user messages as deleted without removing any related message data. - Pruning: marks all user messages as deleted, nullifies message information and removes some message data such as reactions and flags. - Hard: deletes messages completely with all related information. | Yes |
new_channel_owner_id | string | Channels owned by hard-deleted users will be transferred to this userID. If you doesn’t provide a value, the channel owner will have a system generated ID like delete-user-8219f6578a7395g | Yes |
calls | Enum (soft, hard) | - Soft: marks calls and related data as deleted. - Hard: deletes calls and related data completely Note that this applies only to 1:1 calls, not group calls | Yes |
Deleting users is done asynchronously and and can take some time to complete. You can find more information on how to work with API endpoints performing async work in the async operations guide.
