    const user_id2 = 10;

    const typingParams = {

        to: [user_id1, user_id2],

Parameters

op required

Example: start

Whether the user has started (start) or stopped (stop) to type.

Must be one of: start, stop.


to required

Example: [9, 10]

The user_ids of the recipients of the message being typed. Typing notifications are only supported for private messages. Send a JSON-encoded list of user_ids. (Use a list even if there is only one recipient.).

Changes: Before Zulip 2.0, this parameter accepted only a JSON-encoded list of email addresses. Support for the email address-based format was removed in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 11).
