By nature of room shutdowns being performed at the database level, -the structure can and does change without notice. - -First, it's important to understand that a room shutdown is very destructive. Undoing a shutdown is not as simple as pretending it -never happened - work has to be done to move forward instead of resetting the past. In fact, in some cases it might not be possible -to recover at all: - -* If the room was invite-only, your users will need to be re-invited. -* If the room no longer has any members at all, it'll be impossible to rejoin. -* The first user to rejoin will have to do so via an alias on a different server. - -With all that being said, if you still want to try and recover the room: - -1. For safety reasons, shut down Synapse. -2. In the database, run `DELETE FROM blocked_rooms WHERE room_id = '!example:example.org';` - * For caution: it's recommended to run this in a transaction: `BEGIN; DELETE ...;`, verify you got 1 result, then `COMMIT;`. - * The room ID is the same one supplied to the shutdown room API, not the Content Violation room. -3. Restart Synapse. - -You will have to manually handle, if you so choose, the following: - -* Aliases that would have been redirected to the Content Violation room. -* Users that would have been booted from the room (and will have been force-joined to the Content Violation room). -* Removal of the Content Violation room if desired. diff --git a/docs/upgrade.md b/docs/upgrade.md index 8831c9d6cf..3ac2387e2a 100644 --- a/docs/upgrade.md +++ b/docs/upgrade.md @@ -85,6 +85,19 @@ process, for example: dpkg -i matrix-synapse-py3_1.3.0+stretch1_amd64.deb ``` +# Upgrading to v1.xx.0 + +## Removal of old Room Admin API + +The following admin APIs were deprecated in [Synapse 1.25](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/v1.25.0/CHANGES.md#removal-warning) +(released on 2021-01-13) and have now been removed: + +- `POST /_synapse/admin/v1/purge_room` +- `POST /_synapse/admin/v1/shutdown_room/<room_id>` + +Any scripts still using the above APIs should be converted to use the +[Delete Room API](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/admin_api/rooms.html#delete-room-api). + # Upgrading to v1.xx.0 |
