# Fetch block status

> Check whether the current user blocks a specific user

## Overview

Returns a function that checks whether the current authenticated user blocks a given `userId`. The result reports the current user's **outbound** state only — whether *I* block this user. It never reveals whether the other user has blocked the current user (the inbound direction is deliberately hidden for non-disclosure).

## Usage Example

```tsx theme={null}
import { useFetchBlockStatus } from "@sublay/react-js";

function ProfilePage({ userId }: { userId: string }) {
  const fetchBlockStatus = useFetchBlockStatus();

  useEffect(() => {
    fetchBlockStatus({ userId }).then((status) => {
      console.log(status.blocked, status.blockId);
    });
  }, [userId]);
}
```

## Parameters

The hook returns a function. That function accepts:

<ParamField path="userId" type="string" required>
  The ID of the user to check. Cannot be the current user's own ID.
</ParamField>

## Returns

<ResponseField name="blocked" type="boolean">
  Whether the current user blocks the target user.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="blockId" type="string | undefined">
  The ID of the block record. Present when `blocked` is `true`.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="createdAt" type="string | undefined">
  ISO timestamp of when the block was created. Present when `blocked` is `true`.
</ResponseField>
