Request parameters

The following list only shows the request parameters for this interface and some public parameters. For a complete list of public parameters, please refer to Accessing Server APIs - Public parameters.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
FromUserId	String	Yes	The ID of the operating user.
GroupId	String	Yes	The ID of the group.
IsAllMuted	Bool	No	Whether to mute all members. If not passed, it defaults to false.
MuteRoleList[]	Array of Number	No (only works when IsAllMuted is false or not passed)	A list of roles to be muted. Up to 20 group roles can be muted in a single request. The enumerations are as follows: 1: Group owner. 2: Administrator. 3: Group member. Others: roles defined by you, which are recommended to be greater than 100.
Duration	Number	No	The duration of the mute. If not passed, it defaults to 0. -1: Permanent mute. 0: Cancel the group-level mute. Greater than 0: The duration of the mute in seconds. The maximum duration is 30 days (2592000 seconds). If a mute duration is set within the validity period of a previous mute, the mute status will be extended based on the duration set in the most recent request.

Note

If IsAllMuted, MuteRoleList, and Duration are not passed, all users in the group will have their mute status lifted.
If Duration is not 0 and IsAllMuted is set to false, the MuteRoleList passed in will override the muuted role list set previously.
FromUserId only supports numbers, English characters, and the following special characters: '!', '#', '$', '%', '&', '(', ')', '+', '', ':', ';', '<', '=', '.', '>', '?', '@', '[', ']', '^', '_', '{', '}', '|', '~'.
If FromUserId is an administrator, MuteRoleList[] cannot include 1 (group owner).
