- <li><code>history_visibility</code> - Rooms are ordered alphabetically by visibility of history of the room.</li>
- <li><code>state_events</code> - Rooms are ordered by number of state events. Largest to smallest.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p><code>dir</code> - Direction of room order. Either <code>f</code> for forwards or <code>b</code> for backwards. Setting
- this value to <code>b</code> will reverse the above sort order. Defaults to <code>f</code>.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p><code>search_term</code> - Filter rooms by their room name, canonical alias and room id.
- Specifically, rooms are selected if the search term is contained in</p>
- <ul>
- <li>the room's name,</li>
- <li>the local part of the room's canonical alias, or</li>
- <li>the complete (local and server part) room's id (case sensitive).</li>

- </ul>
- <p><strong>Response</strong></p>
- <p>The following fields are possible in the JSON response body:</p>
- <ul>
- <li><code>rooms</code> - An array of objects, each containing information about a room.
- <ul>
- <li>Room objects contain the following fields:
- <ul>
- <li><code>room_id</code> - The ID of the room.</li>
- <li><code>name</code> - The name of the room.</li>
- <li><code>canonical_alias</code> - The canonical (main) alias address of the room.</li>
- <li><code>joined_members</code> - How many users are currently in the room.</li>
- <li><code>joined_local_members</code> - How many local users are currently in the room.</li>
- <li><code>version</code> - The version of the room as a string.</li>
- <li><code>creator</code> - The <code>user_id</code> of the room creator.</li>
- <li><code>encryption</code> - Algorithm of end-to-end encryption of messages. Is <code>null</code> if encryption is not active.</li>
- <li><code>federatable</code> - Whether users on other servers can join this room.</li>
- <li><code>public</code> - Whether the room is visible in room directory.</li>
- <li><code>join_rules</code> - The type of rules used for users wishing to join this room. One of: ["public", "knock", "invite", "private"].</li>
- <li><code>guest_access</code> - Whether guests can join the room. One of: ["can_join", "forbidden"].</li>
- <li><code>history_visibility</code> - Who can see the room history. One of: ["invited", "joined", "shared", "world_readable"].</li>
- <li><code>state_events</code> - Total number of state_events of a room. Complexity of the room.</li>

- </ul>
- </li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li><code>offset</code> - The current pagination offset in rooms. This parameter should be
- used instead of <code>next_token</code> for room offset as <code>next_token</code> is
- not intended to be parsed.</li>
- <li><code>total_rooms</code> - The total number of rooms this query can return. Using this
- and <code>offset</code>, you have enough information to know the current
- progression through the list.</li>
- <li><code>next_batch</code> - If this field is present, we know that there are potentially
- more rooms on the server that did not all fit into this response.
- We can use <code>next_batch</code> to get the "next page" of results. To do
- so, simply repeat your request, setting the <code>from</code> parameter to
- the value of <code>next_batch</code>.</li>
- <li><code>prev_batch</code> - If this field is present, it is possible to paginate backwards.
- Use <code>prev_batch</code> for the <code>from</code> value in the next request to
- get the "previous page" of results.</li>

- <h1 id="delete-room-api"><a class="header" href="#delete-room-api">Delete Room API</a></h1>
- <p>The Delete Room admin API allows server admins to remove rooms from the server
- and block these rooms.</p>
- <p>Shuts down a room. Moves all local users and room aliases automatically to a
- new room if <code>new_room_user_id</code> is set. Otherwise local users only
- leave the room without any information.</p>
- <p>The new room will be created with the user specified by the <code>new_room_user_id</code> parameter
- as room administrator and will contain a message explaining what happened. Users invited
- to the new room will have power level <code>-10</code> by default, and thus be unable to speak.</p>
- <p>If <code>block</code> is <code>true</code>, users will be prevented from joining the old room.
- This option can in <a href="#version-1-old-version">Version 1</a> also be used to pre-emptively
- block a room, even if it's unknown to this homeserver. In this case, the room will be
- blocked, and no further action will be taken. If <code>block</code> is <code>false</code>, attempting to
- delete an unknown room is invalid and will be rejected as a bad request.</p>
- <p>This API will remove all trace of the old room from your database after removing
- all local users. If <code>purge</code> is <code>true</code> (the default), all traces of the old room will
- be removed from your database after removing all local users. If you do not want
- this to happen, set <code>purge</code> to <code>false</code>.
- Depending on the amount of history being purged, a call to the API may take
- several minutes or longer.</p>
- <p>The local server will only have the power to move local user and room aliases to
- the new room. Users on other servers will be unaffected.</p>
- <h2 id="version-1-old-version"><a class="header" href="#version-1-old-version">Version 1 (old version)</a></h2>
- <p>This version works synchronously. That means you only get the response once the server has
- finished the action, which may take a long time. If you request the same action
- a second time, and the server has not finished the first one, the second request will block.
- This is fixed in version 2 of this API. The parameters are the same in both APIs.
- This API will become deprecated in the future.</p>
- <p>The API is:</p>
- <pre><code>DELETE /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<room_id>

- <p><strong>Note</strong>: This API is new, experimental and "subject to change".</p>
- <p>This version works asynchronously, meaning you get the response from server immediately
- while the server works on that task in background. You can then request the status of the action
- to check if it has completed.</p>
- <p>The API is:</p>
- <pre><code>DELETE /_synapse/admin/v2/rooms/<room_id>

- <li><code>room_id</code> - The ID of the room.</li>
- </ul>
- <p>The following JSON body parameters are available:</p>
- <ul>
- <li><code>new_room_user_id</code> - Optional. If set, a new room will be created with this user ID
- as the creator and admin, and all users in the old room will be moved into that
- room. If not set, no new room will be created and the users will just be removed
- from the old room. The user ID must be on the local server, but does not necessarily
- have to belong to a registered user.</li>
- <li><code>room_name</code> - Optional. A string representing the name of the room that new users will be
- invited to. Defaults to <code>Content Violation Notification</code></li>
- <li><code>message</code> - Optional. A string containing the first message that will be sent as
- <code>new_room_user_id</code> in the new room. Ideally this will clearly convey why the
- original room was shut down. Defaults to <code>Sharing illegal content on this server is not permitted and rooms in violation will be blocked.</code></li>
- <li><code>block</code> - Optional. If set to <code>true</code>, this room will be added to a blocking list,
- preventing future attempts to join the room. Rooms can be blocked
- even if they're not yet known to the homeserver (only with
- <a href="#version-1-old-version">Version 1</a> of the API). Defaults to <code>false</code>.</li>
- <li><code>purge</code> - Optional. If set to <code>true</code>, it will remove all traces of the room from your database.
- Defaults to <code>true</code>.</li>
- <li><code>force_purge</code> - Optional, and ignored unless <code>purge</code> is <code>true</code>. If set to <code>true</code>, it
- will force a purge to go ahead even if there are local users still in the room. Do not
- use this unless a regular <code>purge</code> operation fails, as it could leave those users'
- clients in a confused state.</li>
- </ul>

- <h2 id="undoing-room-deletions"><a class="header" href="#undoing-room-deletions">Undoing room deletions</a></h2>
- <p><em>Note</em>: This guide may be outdated by the time you read it. By nature of room deletions being performed at the database level,
- the structure can and does change without notice.</p>
- <p>First, it's important to understand that a room deletion is very destructive. Undoing a deletion is not as simple as pretending it
- never happened - work has to be done to move forward instead of resetting the past. In fact, in some cases it might not be possible
- to recover at all:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>If the room was invite-only, your users will need to be re-invited.</li>
- <li>If the room no longer has any members at all, it'll be impossible to rejoin.</li>
- <li>The first user to rejoin will have to do so via an alias on a different
- server (or receive an invite from a user on a different server).</li>
- </ul>
- <p>With all that being said, if you still want to try and recover the room:</p>
- <ol>
- <li>
- <p>If the room was <code>block</code>ed, you must unblock it on your server. This can be
- accomplished as follows:</p>
- <ol>
- <li>For safety reasons, shut down Synapse.</li>
- <li>In the database, run <code>DELETE FROM blocked_rooms WHERE room_id = '!example:example.org';</code>
- <ul>
- <li>For caution: it's recommended to run this in a transaction: <code>BEGIN; DELETE ...;</code>, verify you got 1 result, then <code>COMMIT;</code>.</li>
- <li>The room ID is the same one supplied to the delete room API, not the Content Violation room.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>Restart Synapse.</li>
- </ol>
- <p>This step is unnecessary if <code>block</code> was not set.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Any room aliases on your server that pointed to the deleted room may have
- been deleted, or redirected to the Content Violation room. These will need
- to be restored manually.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Users on your server that were in the deleted room will have been kicked
- from the room. Consider whether you want to update their membership
- (possibly via the <a href="room_membership.html">Edit Room Membership API</a>) or let
- them handle rejoining themselves.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>If <code>new_room_user_id</code> was given, a 'Content Violation' will have been
- created. Consider whether you want to delete that roomm.</p>
- </li>
- </ol>
- <h1 id="make-room-admin-api"><a class="header" href="#make-room-admin-api">Make Room Admin API</a></h1>

- If the user is not in the room, and it is not publicly joinable, then invite the user.</p>
