Conversation Types
Global IM UIKit supports three types of conversations: one-to-one chat, group chat, and system conversation.
One-to-One Chat
Refers to a one-on-one chat between two users, who can be friends or strangers. RC does not manage user relationships, but is responsible for establishing and maintaining the conversation relationship.
Group Chat
Refers to a chat involving more than two users. Group member information is provided and maintained by the App, and RC is only responsible for delivering messages to all group members. Each group has a maximum of 3000 members, and there is no limit to the number of groups within the App.
System Conversation
Refers to a one-on-one conversation established by sending messages to users using the system notification capabilities of the IM Server API. This type of conversation only displays received system messages and does not support replies.
