##### `m.room.power_levels` events accept values as strings
In order to maintain backwards compatibility with early implementations,
each of the integer-valued properties within
[`m.room.power_levels`](/client-server-api#mroompower_levels) events can
be encoded as strings instead of integers. This includes the nested values
within the `events`, `notifications` and `users` properties.
For example, the following is a valid `m.room.power_levels` event in this room version:
```json
{
"content": {
"ban": "50",
"events": {
"m.room.power_levels": "100"
},
"events_default": "0",
"state_default": "50",
"users": {
"@example:localhost": "100"
},
"users_default": "0"
},
"origin_server_ts": 1432735824653,
"room_id": "!jEsUZKDJdhlrceRyVU:example.org",
"sender": "@example:example.org",
"state_key": "",
"type": "m.room.power_levels"
}
```
When the value is representative of an integer, they must be the following format:
* a single base 10 integer, no float values or decimal points, optionally with
any number of leading zeroes (`"100"`, `"000100"`);
* optionally prefixed with a single `-` or `+` character before the integer (`"+100"`,
`"-100"`).
* optionally with any number of leading or trailing whitespace characters (`" 100 "`,
`" 00100 "`, `" +100 "`, `" -100 "`);

{{% boxes/rationale %}}
Without the `join_authorised_via_users_server` property, redacted join events
can become invalid when verifying the auth chain of a given event, thus creating
a split-brain scenario where the user is able to speak from one server's
perspective but most others will continually reject their events.
This can theoretically be worked around with a rejoin to the room, being careful
not to use the faulty events as `prev_events`, though instead it is encouraged
to use v9 rooms over v8 rooms to outright avoid the situation.
[Issue #3373](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/3373) has further
information.
{{% /boxes/rationale %}}
The full redaction algorithm follows.
Upon receipt of a redaction event, the server must strip off any keys
not in the following list:
- `event_id`
- `type`
- `room_id`
- `sender`
- `state_key`
- `content`
- `hashes`
- `signatures`
- `depth`
- `prev_events`
- `prev_state`
- `auth_events`
- `origin`
- `origin_server_ts`
- `membership`
The content object must also be stripped of all keys, unless it is one
of one of the following event types:
- `m.room.member` allows keys `membership`, `join_authorised_via_users_server`.
- `m.room.create` allows key `creator`.
- `m.room.join_rules` allows keys `join_rule`, `allow`.
- `m.room.power_levels` allows keys `ban`, `events`, `events_default`,
`kick`, `redact`, `state_default`, `users`, `users_default`.
- `m.room.history_visibility` allows key `history_visibility`.

title: Room Version 10
type: docs
weight: 100
---
This room version builds on [version 9](/rooms/v9) to enforce that power level
values be integers, and to introduce a new `knock_restricted` join rule, allowing
prospective members to more easily join such a room.
## Client considerations
This room version adds a new `knock_restricted` join rule to allow prospective
members of a room join either through knocking (introduced in [room version 7](/rooms/v7))
or through "join restrictions" (introduced in [room version 8](/rooms/v8) and
refined in [room version 9](/rooms/v9)).
Clients should render the new join rule accordingly for such rooms. For example:
```
This room is:
[ ] Public
[x] Private
Join rules (disabled when Public):
[x] Allow members of `#space:example.org` to join
[x] Allow knocking
```
Clients which implement the redaction algorithm locally should refer to the
[redactions](#redactions) section below for a full overview.
## Server implementation components
{{% boxes/warning %}}
The information contained in this section is strictly for server
implementors. Applications which use the Client-Server API are generally
unaffected by the intricacies contained here. The section above
regarding client considerations is the resource that Client-Server API
use cases should reference.
{{% /boxes/warning %}}
[Room version 7](/rooms/v7) added "knocking" and [room version 8](/rooms/v8)
added "join restrictions" (refined by [room version 9](/rooms/v9)) — both allow
prospective members an avenue to join, however it was not possible to use
the two mechanisms together. This room version adds a new
`knock_restricted` join rule as a mix of the two behaviours, allowing a user to
join the room if they meet either the `restricted` join rule criteria or the
`knock` join rule criteria.
This room version additionally requires that values in the power levels event
be integers and not string representations, unlike other room versions.
Room version 10 is based upon room version 9 with the following considerations.
### Event format
The event format is unchanged by this room version. See [below](#event-format-1)
for details on the current event format.
#### Deprecated event content schemas
While this room version does not change the event format specifically, some
deprecated behaviours are strictly no longer supported.
##### Values in `m.room.power_levels` events must be integers
In other room versions, such as [v9](/rooms/v9/#mroompower_levels-events-accept-values-as-strings),
power levels could be represented as strings for backwards compatibility.
This backwards compatibility is removed in this room version - power levels MUST NOT
be represented as strings within this room version. Power levels which are not
correctly structured are rejected under the authorization rules below.
### Authorization rules
Events must be signed by the server denoted by the `sender` key.
`m.room.redaction` events are not explicitly part of the auth rules.
They are still subject to the minimum power level rules, but should always
fall into "10. Otherwise, allow". Instead of being authorized at the time
of receipt, they are authorized at a later stage: see the
[Redactions](#redactions) section below for more information.
The types of state events that affect authorization are:
- [`m.room.create`](/client-server-api#mroomcreate)
- [`m.room.member`](/client-server-api#mroommember)
- [`m.room.join_rules`](/client-server-api#mroom)
- [`m.room.power_levels`](/client-server-api#mroompower_levels)
- [`m.room.third_party_invite`](/client-server-api#mroomthird_party_invite)
{{% boxes/note %}}
Power levels are inferred from defaults when not explicitly supplied.
For example, mentions of the `sender`'s power level can also refer to
the default power level for users in the room.
{{% /boxes/note %}}
The rules are as follows:
1. If type is `m.room.create`:
1. If it has any previous events, reject.
2. If the domain of the `room_id` does not match the domain of the
`sender`, reject.
3. If `content.room_version` is present and is not a recognised
version, reject.
4. If `content` has no `creator` field, reject.
5. Otherwise, allow.
2. Reject if event has `auth_events` that:
1. have duplicate entries for a given `type` and `state_key` pair
2. have entries whose `type` and `state_key` don't match those
specified by the [auth events
selection](/server-server-api#auth-events-selection)
algorithm described in the server specification.
3. If event does not have a `m.room.create` in its `auth_events`,
reject.
4. If type is `m.room.member`:
1. If no `state_key` key or `membership` key in `content`, reject.
2. If `content` has a `join_authorised_via_users_server`
key:
1. If the event is not validly signed by the homeserver of the user ID denoted
by the key, reject.
3. If `membership` is `join`:
1. If the only previous event is an `m.room.create` and the
`state_key` is the creator, allow.
2. If the `sender` does not match `state_key`, reject.
3. If the `sender` is banned, reject.
4. If the `join_rule` is `invite` or `knock` then allow if
membership state is `invite` or `join`.
5. {{< changed-in this="true" >}}
If the `join_rule` is `restricted` or `knock_restricted`:
1. If membership state is `join` or `invite`, allow.
2. If the `join_authorised_via_users_server` key in `content`
is not a user with sufficient permission to invite other
users, reject.
3. Otherwise, allow.
6. If the `join_rule` is `public`, allow.
7. Otherwise, reject.
4. If `membership` is `invite`:
1. If `content` has `third_party_invite` key:
1. If *target user* is banned, reject.
2. If `content.third_party_invite` does not have a `signed`
key, reject.
3. If `signed` does not have `mxid` and `token` keys,
reject.
4. If `mxid` does not match `state_key`, reject.
5. If there is no `m.room.third_party_invite` event in the
current room state with `state_key` matching `token`,
reject.
6. If `sender` does not match `sender` of the
`m.room.third_party_invite`, reject.
7. If any signature in `signed` matches any public key in
the `m.room.third_party_invite` event, allow. The public
keys are in `content` of `m.room.third_party_invite` as:
1. A single public key in the `public_key` field.
2. A list of public keys in the `public_keys` field.
8. Otherwise, reject.
2. If the `sender`'s current membership state is not `join`,
reject.
3. If *target user*'s current membership state is `join` or
`ban`, reject.
4. If the `sender`'s power level is greater than or equal to
the *invite level*, allow.
5. Otherwise, reject.
5. If `membership` is `leave`:
1. If the `sender` matches `state_key`, allow if and only if
that user's current membership state is `invite`, `join`,
or `knock`.
2. If the `sender`'s current membership state is not `join`,
reject.
3. If the *target user*'s current membership state is `ban`,
and the `sender`'s power level is less than the *ban level*,
reject.
4. If the `sender`'s power level is greater than or equal to

2. If `sender` does not match `state_key`, reject.
3. If the `sender`'s current membership is not `ban`, `invite`,
or `join`, allow.
4. Otherwise, reject.
8. Otherwise, the membership is unknown. Reject.
5. If the `sender`'s current membership state is not `join`, reject.
6. If type is `m.room.third_party_invite`:
1. Allow if and only if `sender`'s current power level is greater
than or equal to the *invite level*.
7. If the event type's *required power level* is greater than the
`sender`'s power level, reject.
8. If the event has a `state_key` that starts with an `@` and does not
match the `sender`, reject.
9. If type is `m.room.power_levels`:
1. {{< added-in this="true" >}}
If any of the keys `users_default`, `events_default`, `state_default`,
`ban`, `redact`, `kick`, or `invite` in `content` are present and
not an integer, reject.
2. {{< added-in this="true" >}}
If either of the keys `events` or `notifications` in `content`
are present and not a dictionary with values that are integers,
reject.
3. If `users` key in `content` is not a dictionary with keys that
are valid user IDs with values that are integers, reject.
2. If there is no previous `m.room.power_levels` event in the room,
allow.
3. For the keys `users_default`, `events_default`, `state_default`,
`ban`, `redact`, `kick`, `invite` check if they were added,
changed or removed. For each found alteration:
1. If the current value is higher than the `sender`'s current
power level, reject.
2. If the new value is higher than the `sender`'s current power
level, reject.
4. For each entry being added, changed or removed in both the
`events`, `users`, and `notifications` keys:
1. If the current value is higher than the `sender`'s current
power level, reject.
2. If the new value is higher than the `sender`'s current power
level, reject.
5. For each entry being changed under the `users` key, other than
the `sender`'s own entry:
1. If the current value is equal to the `sender`'s current
power level, reject.
6. Otherwise, allow.
10. Otherwise, allow.
{{% boxes/note %}}
Some consequences of these rules:
- Unless you are a member of the room, the only permitted operations
(apart from the initial create/join) are: joining a public room;
accepting or rejecting an invitation to a room.
- To unban somebody, you must have power level greater than or equal
to both the kick *and* ban levels, *and* greater than the target
user's power level.

This can theoretically be worked around with a rejoin to the room, being careful
not to use the faulty events as `prev_events`, though instead it is encouraged
to use v9 rooms over v8 rooms to outright avoid the situation.
[Issue #3373](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/3373) has further
information.

The full redaction algorithm follows.
{{% rver-fragment name="v3-handling-redactions" %}}
Upon receipt of a redaction event, the server must strip off any keys
not in the following list:
- `event_id`
- `type`
- `room_id`
- `sender`
- `state_key`
- `content`
- `hashes`
- `signatures`
- `depth`
- `prev_events`
- `prev_state`
- `auth_events`
- `origin`
- `origin_server_ts`
- `membership`
The content object must also be stripped of all keys, unless it is one
of one of the following event types:
- `m.room.member` allows keys `membership`, `join_authorised_via_users_server`.
- `m.room.create` allows key `creator`.
- `m.room.join_rules` allows keys `join_rule`, `allow`.
- `m.room.power_levels` allows keys `ban`, `events`, `events_default`,
`kick`, `redact`, `state_default`, `users`, `users_default`.
- `m.room.history_visibility` allows key `history_visibility`.

Some [room versions](/rooms) accept power level values to be represented as
strings rather than integers. This is strictly for backwards compatibility.
A homeserver should take reasonable precautions to prevent users from sending
new power level events with string values (eg: by rejecting the API request),
and must never populate the default power levels in a room as string values.
See the [room version specification](/rooms) for more information.
