Response

Return values

• emoji: object

  An object that contains emoji objects, each identified with their emoji ID as the key.

  • {emoji_id}: object

    Object containing details about the emoji with the specified ID. It has the following properties:

    • id: string

      The ID for this emoji, same as the object's key.

    • name: string

      The user-friendly name for this emoji. Users in the organization can use this emoji by writing this name between colons (:name :).

    • source_url: string

      The path relative to the organization's URL where the emoji's image can be found.

    • still_url: string | null

      Only non-null when the emoji's image is animated.

      The path relative to the organization's URL where a still (not animated) version of the emoji can be found. (This is currently always the first frame of the animation).

      This is useful for clients to display the emoji in contexts where continuously animating it would be a bad user experience (E.g. because it would be distracting).

      Changes: New in Zulip 5.0 (added as optional field in feature level 97 and then made mandatory, but nullable, in feature level 113).

    • deactivated: boolean

      Whether the emoji has been deactivated or not.

    • author_id: integer | null

      The user ID of the user who uploaded the custom emoji. Will be null if the uploader is unknown.

      Changes: New in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 7). Previously was accessible via an author object with an id field.
