Multiple dialogs are created when chatting Quickblox

Question

While creating a chat dialog for a group. For e.g User A is creating dialog and User B want to use that dialog. But sometimes scenario is occurring that User A create one dialog and then User B create another dialog. So they are not able to chat with each other because of two different dialogs. Below is the code i am using to create dialog :-

-(void) moveToChatView:(QBChatDialog *)chatDialog ObjFriend:(Friend *)objFriend

{
    [QBRequest createDialog:chatDialog successBlock:^(QBResponse *response, QBChatDialog *createdDialog)

    {
         // Success, do something
    }
    errorBlock:^(QBResponse *response)
    {

    }];
} 

Edit :- Is there any method like createOrJoinRoomWithName??

Answer 1

To if you want to add user in groupchat then you need to update the group dialogue.

QBChatDialog *updateDialog = [[QBChatDialog alloc] initWithDialogID:@"53aac645535c12bd3b008a40" type:QBChatDialogTypeGroup];
updateDialog.pushOccupantsIDs = @[@"300", @"301", @"302"];
updateDialog.name = @"school friends";
 
[QBRequest updateDialog:updateDialog successBlock:^(QBResponse *responce, QBChatDialog *dialog) {
 
} errorBlock:^(QBResponse *response) {
 
}];

For more detail check this Update_group_dialog

And for chat in group dialogue check Chat_in_group_dialog

Don't forget to use delegate method.

pragma mark QBChatDelegate

- (void)chatRoomDidReceiveMessage:(QBChatMessage *)message fromDialogId:(NSString *)dialogId{
 
}

Edit 1:- you will get DialogId with retriving all dialog.

QBResponsePage *page = [QBResponsePage responsePageWithLimit:100 skip:0];
 
[QBRequest dialogsForPage:page extendedRequest:nil successBlock:^(QBResponse *response, NSArray *dialogObjects, NSSet *dialogsUsersIDs, QBResponsePage *page) {
 
} errorBlock:^(QBResponse *response) {
 
}];

Edit 2:- To know the dialogId when creating new Dialog use createChatNotificationForGroupChatCreation method.

- (QBChatMessage *)createChatNotificationForGroupChatCreation:(QBDialog *)dialog
{
    // create message:
    QBChatMessage *inviteMessage = [QBChatMessage message];
 
    NSMutableDictionary *customParams = [NSMutableDictionary new];
    customParams[@"xmpp_room_jid"] = dialog.roomJID;
    customParams[@"name"] = dialog.name;
    customParams[@"_id"] = dialog.ID;
    customParams[@"type"] = @(dialog.type);
    customParams[@"occupants_ids"] = [dialog.occupantIDs componentsJoinedByString:@","];
 
    // Add notification_type=1 to extra params when you created a group chat 
    //
    customParams[@"notification_type"] = @"1";
 
    inviteMessage.customParameters = customParams;
 
    return inviteMessage;
}
