Start a Group Chat

Sometimes you may need to start a direct message (DM) with a group of people. It’s easy to add these new users and bring them into the discussion.  

Click on Direct messages in the left side panel.

Type the names of those you want to add to the direct message DM, or select their names from the drop-down box and click on Start new chat.

If you do not see the Start new chat option it means that you've had a group chat with the selected set of users and can begin typing your message in the message field.

Once you start the group chat it will show the users at the top right side. Also, in the left bottom side panel you will see the group chat.

Alternatively, click on the + icon next to Team Chat then New Chat. Within that view you will see all of your current group and direct chats as well as the option to search for users and to start a new chat with.
