How do I restrict a custom channel (ChatService) to a certain group?
I've currently got this for making a staff channel:
local function Run(ChatService)
local staffChannel = ChatService:AddChannel("Staff")
staffChannel.WelcomeMessage = "Welcome to the staff chat! Grammar is still required in this chat, only staff can see this channel."
staffChannel.Joinable = false
end
I want to make it so only rank ... from group ... can see and enter/leave the chat. But I can't find much documentation

i've found a ton of documentation, not sure where you were looking. https://developer.roblox.com/articles/Lua-Chat-System/API/ChatService https://developer.roblox.com/articles/Lua-Chat-System/API/ChatSpeaker User#22604 1 — 6y

Here you go, you just have to change Group and Rank and then it should work.
local Group = 0
local Rank = 100
local function Run(ChatService)
local staffChannel = ChatService:AddChannel("Staff")
staffChannel.WelcomeMessage = "Welcome to the staff chat! Grammar is still required in this chat, only staff can see this channel."
staffChannel.Joinable = false
ChatService.SpeakerAdded:Connect(function(Speaker)
if Speaker.PlayerObj and Speaker.PlayerObj:GetRankInGroup(Group) >= Rank then
staffChannel:InternalAddSpeaker(Speaker)
end
end)
end
