📘 Note

• When calling this as an OBO-enabled endpoint, use the OBO User Authenticate token for sessionToken.

• Pods from all users involved need to have crossPod enabled between them.

📘 404 Not Found

A 404 Not Found error indicates either:

• The specified user doesn’t exist.

• The calling user and specified user are not connected because a Create Connection request has not yet been sent.

📘 Internal Connections

Users who belong to the same private pod are implicitly connected. Getting the connection status with an internal user will return the corresponding connection object with a status of ACCEPTED.

Connection Status

Currently, there are four possible connection status:

• PENDING_INCOMING: The specified user requested to connect with the calling user.

• PENDING_OUTGOING: The calling user requested to connect with the specified user.

• ACCEPTED: The two users are connected.

• REJECTED: The two users are not connected.
