## Remarks

This enumeration describes the communication relationship between two users that your app can request from Game Chat 2. You can retrieve the current communication relationship between a local user and a specified target user by calling the [chat\_user\_local::get\_effective\_communication\_relationship](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/chat/gamechat2/classes/chat_user/chat_user_local/methods/chat_user_local_get_effective_communication_relationship.md) method, or set it by calling the [chat\_user\_local::set\_communication\_relationship](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/chat/gamechat2/classes/chat_user/chat_user_local/methods/chat_user_local_set_communication_relationship.md) method. You can also set the default communication relationship between users when you initialize the chat instance, by calling the [chat\_manager::initialize](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/chat/gamechat2/classes/chat_manager/methods/chat_manager_initialize.md) method.

For more information about initializing and working with a chat instance, see [Using the Game Chat 2 C++ API](https://docs.xbox.com/services/xbox-services/multiplayer/chat/game-chat2/using-game-chat-2.md).
