Update a Member

In this code snippet you learn how to update the details of a Member. To remove a Member from the Conversation, change the state to left.

Example

Ensure the following variables are set to your required values using any convenient method:

Key	Description
`CONVERSATION_ID`	The ID of the Conversation.
`USER_ID`	The unique ID of the User.
`MEMBER_ID`	The unique ID of the Member.

Prerequisites

You will need to use an existing Application that contains a Conversation and at least one Member in order to be able to update a Member. See the Create Conversation code snippet for information on how to create an Application and some sample Conversations.

Write the code

Add the following to update-member.sh:

curl -X "PUT" "https://api.nexmo.com/v1/conversations/$CONV_ID/members/$CONV_MEMBER_ID" \
     -H 'Authorization: Bearer '$JWT\
     -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
     -d $'{
  "state": "'$CONV_MEMBER_STATE'",
  "from": "string"
}'

Run your code

We can use the application plugin for Gradle to simplify the running of our application. Update your build.gradle with the following:

apply plugin: 'application'
mainClassName = project.hasProperty('main') ? project.getProperty('main') : ''

Run the following gradle command to execute your application, replacing com.vonage.quickstart.conversation with the package containing UpdateMember:

gradle run -Pmain=com.vonage.quickstart.conversation.UpdateMember
