When you call sb.disconnect, it disconnects the WebSocket and clears local cache. You can think of it as logging out.

In some cases, you need to only disconnect the WebSocket. You can now do it by calling sb.disconnectWebSocket. It only disconnects the WebSocket and preserves the local cache.

sb.disconnectWebSocket();

To connect again after disconnecting with disconnectWebSocket(), use sb.connect().

const user = await sb.connect(userId: userId);

Now clients can implement Open Channels easier in SDK with more built-in capabilities. You can compare how Member, Participant, and User are different here

• Participant holds essential information about the participant like below. They contain their muted status (is_muted) on top of basic User information

class Participant extends User {
  readonly isMuted: boolean;
}

• ParticipantListQuery.next() now returns Promise<Participant[]>
• For backward compatibility, the return type remains as Promise<User[]>, but the return value can be casted into Promise<Participant[]>

Features

• Added SendbirdChatOptions.sessionTokenRefreshTimeout. You can now set longer timeout value for session token expire. (Default: 60s, Maximum: 1800s). This means that Sendbird SDK will wait longer for your new session token, making it easier for you to reconnect to our service.

Pinned Message 📌

Pinned Message is released. You can now maintain a special set of messages (up to 10 per channel) that you want everyone in the channel to share. It can be anything from announcements, surveys, upcoming events, and any many more. Pin your messages and never miss them! Stay tuned for updates as we are rolling out more exciting features and see below for exact specifications:point_down:

Specification

• Pin when sending a message
  • UserMessageCreateParams.isPinnedMessage: boolean = false
  • FileMessageCreateParams.isPinnedMessage: boolean = false
• Pin existing message
  • GroupChannel.pinMessage(messageId: number): Promise<void>
• Unpin a message
  • GroupChannel.unpinMessage(messageId: number): Promise<void>
• Pinned messages
  • GroupChannel.lastPinnedMessage: BaseMessage = null
  • GroupChannel.pinnedMessageIds: number[] = []

We strongly recommend using Collections (Message, Channel) to implement Pinned Messages as it would automatically take care of numerous events out of the box when messages are created, updated, and deleted.
