Request to join channel feature request

[rohanvasishth]

So I understand that an invite members framework exits. However, I am looking to implement the reverse of this. As in a user on my app would be able to see the list of channels and then send requests to join them depending on which channel the user wanted to join. On the other end, channel members would be able to accept or deny the request to join them.

In my reading of the docs, I don't think this is currently achievable but please do let me know if it is and how I can do it. Thanks!

Thanks for reporting this. This is a good idea and we've added this as a feature request to our backlog.

In the meantime, because this issue describes a backend feature and is not specific to the javascript SDK, I'm going to close this issue.

Is there any update on this?

I'm trying to do the same thing as @JuI3s here. I am considering adding a notification to the channel owner's feed using the getstream activity feed. And then, the channel owner manages the accept/decline from the notification received. Set up permissions on the channel so that only the owner can add channel members. Will report back if this approach succeeds.
