Overview

Demotes a user to the next lower rank in the linked Roblox group. The user does not need to be a workspace member - they only need to be a member of the Roblox group. For workspace members:
  • Action is logged to ranking history, audit log, and disciplinary records
  • Workspace member data is updated
  • Related ranking suggestions are cleared
For non-workspace members (group members only):
  • Action is logged to ranking history and audit log only
  • No disciplinary record is created
  • All logs indicate the action was performed via API
