Priority senders and priority message types overview
Open channels use a message priority mechanism to manage high-concurrency scenarios. Under heavy server load, low-priority messages may be dropped to ensure delivery of important messages. To protect critical messages from being dropped, use priority senders and priority message types.
Priority senders
Priority senders are specific users whose messages are never dropped, regardless of server load. This feature is useful for protecting messages from hosts, moderators, or other important participants.
- Add up to 20 priority senders per open channel.
- Messages from priority senders always have the highest delivery priority.
Priority message types
Priority message types are message objectName values whose messages are never dropped, regardless of the sender. This feature is useful for protecting system notifications, gift messages, or other critical message types.
- Configure up to 20 priority message types per App Key.
- Messages with a priority message type always have the highest delivery priority.
Priority senders and priority message types are independent features. You can enable either or both depending on your requirements.
