Description

creation_content

CreationContent

Extra keys, such as m.federate, to be added to the content of the m.room.create event. The server will overwrite the following keys: creator, room_version. Future versions of the specification may allow the server to overwrite other keys.

initial_state

StateEvent: Please refer to the table below

A list of state events to set in the new room. This allows the user to override the default state events set in the new room. The expected format of the state events are an object with type, state_key and content keys set.

Takes precedence over events set by preset, but gets overridden by name and topic keys.

invite

string

A list of user IDs to invite to the room. This will tell the server to invite everyone in the list to the newly created room.

name

string

If this is included, an m.room.name event will be sent into the room to indicate the name of the room. See Room Events for more information on m.room.name.

preset

enum

Convenience parameter for setting various default state events based on a preset.

If unspecified, the server should use the visibility to determine which preset to use. A visbility of public equates to a preset of public_chat and private visibility equates to a preset of private_chat.

One of: [private_chat, public_chat, trusted_private_chat].

room_alias_name

string

The desired room alias local part. If this is included, a room alias will be created and mapped to the newly created room. The alias will belong to the same node which created the room. For example, if this was set to “foo” and sent to the node “example.com” the complete room alias would be #foo:example.com.

The complete room alias will become the canonical alias for the room and an m.room.canonical_alias event will be sent into the room.

topic

string

If this is included, an m.room.topic event will be sent into the room to indicate the topic for the room. See Room Events for more information on m.room.topic.

visibility

enum

A public visibility indicates that the room will be shown in the published room list. A private visibility will hide the room from the published room list. Rooms default to private visibility if this key is not included. NB: This should not be confused with join_rules which also uses the word public.

One of: [public, private].

Name
Type
