Open Direct Message through code inside app
amit1rana opened this issue · comments
My app simulates Direct Message between multiple users.
From the general channel, I launch my app using the slash command, which opens a pop-up to select the users and it creates a room (type=Direct_message) which shows in the sidebar. All good till here.
But, I want (via code) to open this Direct Message created (also when I recreate a new Direct message with same users, it should open the Direct Message previously created) Is it possibile via code?
//app
export class DirectMessageApp extends App implements IUIKitInteractionHandler {
//code for room creation
public async executeViewSubmitHandler(context: UIKitViewSubmitInteractionContext, read: IRead, http: IHttp, persistence: IPersistence, modify: IModify) {
...
const data = context.getInteractionData();
const usernames: Array<string> = ['user1','user2'];
const supportDirectMessage = await modify.getCreator().startRoom()
.setType(RoomType.DIRECT_MESSAGE)
.setCreator(data.user)
.setMembersToBeAddedByUsernames(usernames);
const directId = await modify.getCreator().finish(supportDirectMessage);
//MISSING CODE TO OPEN THE DIRECT MESSAGE CREATED
return {
success: true,
};
}
This funtionality is present in Rocket.Chat, so I wanted to know if its feasibile via code (or I need to integrate some funtionality at Front-end like Webhook etc.) to make it open the Direct Message.

You mean make users navigate to a specific room (DM in this case)? It's currently not possible. But the DM should be first thing on the side bar right after being created
