Using API to limit trust_levels?

[satonotdead]

Continuing the discussion from How to limit trust level on group?:

@JammyDodger

No, I don’t think it’s possible to do it that way.

I wonder if any experienced user/dev can give me some light here? I want to limit trust_levels usint badges and/or automation and I see it’s not possible out of the box.

Trying to get this done I found that API calls can lock or unlock the trust_level on users, so it could work?

Any advice or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, you got it right: you can’t directly limit the trust level through badges or automation, but you can through the API. If you create a condition (for example, getting a badge), you can call the API with a script to change the trust_level and fix it. It’s not out of the box, but it works

Thanks, I’ll share my experiments. Feel free to share any insight/reading/idea/prototype as well.
