Real-time Group Member Left Events

In other words, as a member of a group, how do I know if someone has left it when my app is running? If a user leaves a group, the members of the group receive a real-time event in the onGroupMemberLeft() method of the GroupListener class. 
class Class_Name  with GroupListener {

//CometChat.addGroupListener("group_Listener_id", this);
@override
void onGroupMemberLeft(Action action, User leftUser, Group leftGroup) {
  print("onGroupMemberLeft ");

}
}

​
Missed Group Member Left Events

In other words, as a member of a group, how do I know if someone has left it when my app is not running? When you retrieve the list of previous messages if a member has left any group that the logged-in user is a member of, the list of messages will contain an Action message. An Action message is a sub-class of BaseMessage class. For the group member left event, in the Action object received, the following fields can help you get the relevant information-
  1. action - left
  2. actionBy - User object containing the details of the user who left the group
  3. actionFor - Group object containing the details of the group the user has left
