This feature adds different states to messages to show the state of the message and allows us to know if the other user has seen the message.
In mission-critical scenarios, visibility of the status of your message might be the difference between success or failure of a mission. Currently, we don’t show different states. We use a greyed-out state when the message is pending (not yet sent to the server), but that may not be obvious enough and may not be enough detail to truly understand the status.
Once the system admin enables it (either default off or on), users would get this modal. Clicking on view message status settings take you to your account settings display.
Great, this is exactly what we need, and a cofiguration on backend as mentioned above, would be awesome making it more flexible to users who want this feature can enable it or disable it per their choice.
Thanks for chiming in, @Pa_Ha! I’ll have to defer to @asaad on if there’s any release date set, but in the meantime you can follow progress on this Jira Ticket
I use Mattermost as a chat for coding tasks with my colleagues. We write tasks, but it’s unclear whether everyone has read them or not, and it’s inconvenient to ask each person every time.
We are really looking forward to this feature.
