# Subscribers

{% hint style="warning" %}

{% endhint %}

Subscribers are users or roles that are mentioned when a new article has arrived. Subscribers can also have filters attached to them so they're only mentioned when certain articles pass their respective filters. To add new subscribers, use the `mention` comand.

Regular users can add subscribed roles to themselves with the `sub` command. Regular users can also remove subscribed roles from themselves with the `unsub` command.

{% hint style="warning" %}
For the role mentions to show up on messages, the placeholder `{subscriptions}` must be used.
{% endhint %}

## Format

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Role Subscriber" %}
{% code title="Subscriber" %}

```javascript
{
    "feed": ObjectId("feedid"),
    "type": "role",
    "id": "<role id here>"

}
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="User Subscriber" %}
{% code title="Subscriber" %}

```javascript
{
    "feed": ObjectId("feedid"),
    "type": "user" ,
    "id": "<user id here>"
}
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Filters

The same filter format as feed filters are used (both regular and regex).

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Regular Filters" %}
{% code title="Subscriber" %}

```javascript
{
    "feed": ObjectId("feedid"),
    "type": "role" ,
    "id": "<role id here>",
    "filters": {
        "title": ["hello"]
    }
}
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Regex Filters" %}
{% code title="Subscriber" %}

```javascript
{
    "feed": ObjectId("feedid"),
    "type": "role" ,
    "id": "<role id here>",
    "rfilters": {
        "title": "\d+"
    }
}
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
