fyi.opensocial.deleteGroup

Delete the group: its account, its repo and its spaces on this host, and the host's own state about it. Irreversible. Requires group.configure, or, for a deactivated group, having held it when the group was switched off. Records members wrote into its spaces live on their own PDSes and are not touched. If no steward holds a recovery key, the group's did:plc is tombstoned too, since nobody could ever use it again; with one, the DID is left for its holders.

  • Switch the group off: its account is deactivated on this host, so nothing can read its spaces or write as it. Reversible with activateGroup. Requires group.configure. The host remembers who held group.configure at this moment, because while the group is off its membership cannot be read.

  • Delete a group space and its index entry. Requires space.delete.

  • Remove a role. Requires group.configure. Fails if any membership still holds it.

  • Leave the group.

  • Revoke one act-as session for the group DID. Requires group.configure.
