Muting users

Access Manager enables you to manage access for individual users so they can be muted on specific channels.

Mute user in channels

To mute user-1 in specific channels, call the grant token method and request only read permissions on these channels.

Node.js

1pubnub.grantToken(
2  {
3    ttl: 15,
4    authorizedUserId: "user-1",
5    resources: {
6      spaces: {
7        "channel-a": {
8          read: true
9        },
10        "channel-b": {
11          read: true
12        }
13      }
14    }
15  }, function(status, token) {
16    console.log(token);
17  }
18);
