App Context API for PubNub Unity SDK

This page describes App Context (formerly Objects v2). To upgrade from Objects v1, refer to the migration guide.

App Context provides easy-to-use, serverless storage for user and channel data you need to build innovative, reliable, scalable applications. Use App Context to easily store metadata about your application users and channels, and their membership associations, without the need to stand up your own databases.

PubNub also triggers events when object data is set or removed from the database. Clients can receive these events in real time and update their front-end application accordingly.

Set Channel Members​

This method sets members in a channel.

Method(s)​

To Set Channel Members you can use the following method(s) in the Unity SDK:

pubnub.SetChannelMembers()
    .Channel(string)
    .Uuids(List<PNChannelMember>)
    .Include(PNChannelMemberField[])
    .Page(PNPageObject)
    .Sort(List<string>)
    .Filter(string)
    .Limit(int)
    .Execute(System.Action<PNChannelMembersResult, PNStatus>)
ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
ChannelStringYesChannel name.
UuidsList<PNChannelMember>YesList of members to add to the channel. List can contain strings (Uuids only) or objects (which can include custom data).
IncludePNChannelMemberField[]OptionalInclude respective additional fields in the response.
PagePNPageObjectOptionalUse for pagination.
SortList<string>OptionalList of properties to sort by. Available options are id, name, and updated. Use asc or desc to specify sort direction. For example: {name: 'asc'}
FilterstringOptionalExpression used to filter the results. Only objects whose properties satisfy the given expression are returned. The filter language is defined here.
LimitintOptionalNumber of objects to return in response. Default is 100, which is also the maximum value.
ExecuteSystem.ActionYesSystem.Action of type PNChannelMembersResult.
ExecuteAsyncNoneOptionalReturns Task<PNResult<PNChannelMembersResult>>.
API limits

To learn about the maximum length of parameters used to set channel members metadata, refer to REST API docs.

Basic Usage​

// Add Members (UUID) for a specific channel
List<PNChannelMember> setMemberChannelList = new List<PNChannelMember>();
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(setMemberChUuid))
{
    setMemberChannelList.Add(new PNChannelMember() { Uuid = "my-uuid", Custom = new Dictionary<string, object>() { { "planet", "earth" } } });
}
PNResult<PNChannelMembersResult> setChannelMembersResponse = await pubnub.SetChannelMembers()
    .Channel(setmemberChMetadataId)
    .Uuids(setMemberChannelList)
    .Include(new PNChannelMemberField[] { PNChannelMemberField.CUSTOM, PNChannelMemberField.UUID, PNChannelMemberField.UUID_CUSTOM })
    .IncludeCount(true)
    .ExecuteAsync();

PNChannelMembersResult setChannelMembersResult = setChannelMembersResponse.Result;
PNStatus status2 = setChannelMembersResponse.Status;

Response​

{
    "ChannelMembers": [
        {
            "UuidMetadata": {
                "Uuid": "uuid-1",
                "Name": "John Doe",
                "Email": "jack@twitter.com",
