#################### SECURITY TIPS #################### Before launching, you should review "Allow creating group channels from SDK" under ⚙️ Sendbird Dashboard -> Settings -> Security. It's turned on at first to simplify running samples and implementing your first code.

Implementation

static Future<GroupChannel> createChannel(
  GroupChannelCreateParams params, {
  ProgressHandler? progressHandler,
  Chat? chat,
}) async {
  sbLog.i(StackTrace.current, 'params.userIds: ${params.userIds}');
  chat ??= SendbirdChat().chat;

  final currentUserId = chat.chatContext.currentUserId ?? '';
  if (params.userIds?.isEmpty ?? true) {
    params.userIds = [currentUserId];
  } else if (params.userIds?.contains(currentUserId) == false) {
    params.userIds?.add(currentUserId);
  }

  return await chat.apiClient.send<GroupChannel>(GroupChannelCreateRequest(
    chat,
    params,
    progressHandler: progressHandler,
  ));
