Question: Reading Channels not possible?

Open erikbsap opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

Hi, sorry to misuse an issue for a question but didn't see another way in the README.

Is it correct that I can't use this to read messages from a channel? Reading other people's responses would only be possible via private message chats and im.list?

I have this same question!

From my understanding this functionality isn't implemented, but I think it could be. Since the app works from a user access token it should be able to access this api endpoint and toggle unreads to true to get new messages etc.

Any plans to do this? If no one else is working on it, I can take it up perhaps.
