Build with AI Agent

Use the Back4app AI Agent to generate a real gaming voice chat app from this template, including frontend, backend, auth, and room, channel, and log flows.

Back4app AI Agent
Ready to build
Create a gaming voice chat app backend on Back4app with this exact schema and behavior.

Schema:
1. User (use Back4app built-in): username, audio settings, permissions; objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).
2. Room: owner (Pointer to User, required), members (Array of Pointers to User), settings (Object); objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).
3. Channel: name (String, required), description (String), permissions (Array of Strings, required); objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).
4. Log: room (Pointer to Room, required), action (String, required), timestamp (Date, required); objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).

Security:
- Only the user can update/delete their profile. Only the owner can create/delete their rooms and channels. Use Cloud Code for validation.

Auth:
- Sign-up, login, logout.

Behavior:
- List users, create/join rooms, manage channels, log activities.

Deliver:
- Back4app app with schema, ACLs, CLPs; frontend for user profiles, rooms, channels, and logs.
