Conversation settings
Update screen capture settings for a Chat conversation
Turns screenshot blocking or screenshot detection on or off in a Chat conversation, for every participant. In a group conversation, only admins can change these settings. Each request changes one setting: send either blocking or detection. For 1:1 conversations, provide the recipient’s user ID; the server constructs the canonical conversation ID from the authenticated user and recipient.
