    subscribeKey: 'sub-key-here'
});

ChatEngine.connect('Username');
ChatEngine.on('$.ready', () => { ... });

1. Attach this plugin to the channel you want, in this case global

ChatEngine.global.plugin(ChatEngineCore.plugin['chat-engine-uploadcare']());

2. Bind UploadCare to a UI element

const widget = uploadcare.Widget('[role=uploadcare-uploader]');
ChatEngine.global.uploadcare.bind(widget);

3. Listen for the $uploadcare.upload events on your channel

ChatEngine.global.on('$uploadcare.upload', (payload) => {
    console.log(payload.data.cdnUrl);
});
