Getting the Owner of a Group

You can get the group owner with the getOwnerWith(_:) method.

Note that the KiiUser instance returned by the method only contains the ID. Execute the refresh(_:) method to get the user's latest information from Kii Cloud.

If the returned user is different from the logged-in user, available user information is limited. For more information, see User Attributes.

The following sample code shows how to get the group owner.

Swift:

do{
  // Get the owner user of the group.
  let owner = try group.getOwnerSynchronous()

  // Refresh the owner to retrieve the latest data from Kii Cloud.
  try owner.refreshSynchronous()

  // Do something.
} catch let error as NSError {
  // Handle the error.
  return
}

// Get the owner user of the group.
group.getOwnerWith() { (group, owner, error) -> Void in
  if error != nil {
    // Handle the error.
    return
  }

  // Refresh the owner to retrieve the latest data from Kii Cloud.
  owner?.refresh { (user, error) -> Void in
    if (error != nil) {
      // Handle the error.
      return;
    }

    // Do something.
  }
}

Objective-C:

NSError *error;

// Get the owner user of the group.
KiiUser *owner = [group getOwnerSynchronous:&error];

if (error != nil) {
  // Handle the error.
  return;
}

// Refresh the owner to retrieve the latest data from Kii Cloud.
[owner refreshSynchronous:&error];

if (error != nil) {
  // Handle the error.
  return;
}

// Do something.

// Get the owner user of the group.
[group getOwnerWithBlock:^(KiiGroup *group, KiiUser *owner, NSError *error) {
  if (error != nil) {
    // Handle the error.
    return;
  }

  [owner refreshWithBlock:^(KiiUser *user, NSError *error) {
    if (error != nil) {
      // Handle the error.
      return;
    }

    // Do something.
  }];
}];
