Group Chat Identity Rules

Warning: The most common source of failure in group operations is choosing the wrong identity. Confirm the identity before performing the action.

Group-chat operations support both --as user (UAT user identity) and --as bot (TAT bot identity). Choosing the correct identity is critical for success.

Basic Principles

  • If the user explicitly specifies an identity: use exactly what the user requested (--as user or --as bot) without guessing.
  • If the user does not specify an identity: infer the correct identity from context instead of relying on the default.

Identity Selection by Operation

Operation Recommended Identity Why
Create group (+chat-create) Depends on the scenario Infer from context
Add members (member-management flow) --as user Bot visibility is limited and often fails when the target user is mutually invisible to the bot (232024)
Update group (+chat-update) Owner identity Permission changes require owner/admin privileges; owner transfer requires owner identity

Inferring the Owner

When an owner-level action is needed and the owner is unknown, infer in this order:

  1. A bot created the group and --owner was not specified -> the owner is the bot (--as bot)
  2. A bot created the group and --owner ou_xxx was specified -> the owner is that user (--as user)
  3. A user created the group and --owner was not specified -> the owner is the current user (--as user)
  4. Still unclear -> ask the user to confirm who owns the group before making owner-level changes

When the Owner Is Neither the Current User Nor the Bot

If the query shows that the owner is a third-party user (owner_id is neither the currently authorized user nor the bot), the current identity does not have owner privileges. In that case:

  • Permission/setting changes: if the bot is an admin of the group, --as bot can still perform admin-level operations such as renaming the group or changing permissions.
  • Owner-only actions such as owner transfer: require the actual owner to complete UAT authorization via lark-cli auth login, then perform the action as that owner.
  • Explain the limitation clearly to the user instead of retrying blindly.

Common Pitfalls

Inviting Members During Group Creation

If a bot creates a group and --users includes users who are mutually invisible to the bot, the entire request fails with 232043. Use two steps instead:

  1. Create the group with the bot first, excluding invisible users: lark-cli im +chat-create --name "Group Name"
  2. Add users later with a user-identity member-management flow

Insufficient Privileges

  • 232016 / 232002 / 232017: the current identity is not the owner or an admin -> switch to the owner identity
  • 232011: the current user is not in the group -> use a group-member identity, or join the group first
  • 232024: the bot and the target user are mutually invisible -> switch to --as user
