Metadata dissapear in channel

JS SDK
1

Hello! I created community channel with metadata sucessfully, but when I fetch channels list sometimes metadata with internalId disappear
I’ve tried to use ChannelRepository.queryChannels and also Amity Api and sometimes didn’t get metadata

const liveChannel = ChannelRepository.createChannel({
  type: ChannelType.Community,
  displayName: 'Some groupname',
  userIds: ['SomeUserId'],
  avatarFileId: 'Some avatar Id',
  metadata: {
    internalId: 'SomeId'
  }
});

Hello, did you perhaps make an update to the channel without including metadata? This could lead to the unintentional removal of metadata.

I didn’t change metadata when update channel

await ChannelRepository.updateChannel({
channelId: this.channelId,
displayName: details.name,
avatarFileId: details?.avatarFileId
});

Hi Mykola, metadata field is still required even though you update the channel otherwise it’ll be replaced with empty field. Therefore, Your code should look like this

await ChannelRepository.updateChannel({
channelId: this.channelId,
displayName: details.name,
avatarFileId: details?.avatarFileId,
 metadata: {
    internalId: 'SomeId'
  }

});

Hello! I’ve tried to add this fix for update channel, but even when I don’t update the channel the metadata disappears. It seems that metadata disappears sometimes not saved when create group channel
