Instagram-private-api: Send direct message?

[prichey]

The README mentions that it is possible to send direct messages with this library, but I don't see anything about that in the source. Am I missing something or is the README in error? If anyone could point me to the relevant method, it'd be much appreciated! Thanks.

By the way, this function changed ? Is the same as Thread.configureText = function(session, users, text) ? Because i did not find.
Another thing... wich url they use because i don´t see this endpoint at instagram website.

I saw this, but if i make my own wrap, i am not gotting work. I already did the send comment, post likes, etc... but this i cannot make work and at instagram website doesn´t have nothing about.
I would like to know what parameters do I have to send at Body when send the Post request !?

What is client_context ?
About the function generateUUID , what is UUID? Because i am using Xamarin.Auth and to request info, post comments, etc i don´t have to explicit pass nothing about UUID. This is used in this wrap api, to do theses functions that i mencioned ?

I sent with the parameters thread_ids and text . I got succesfull status, but the message was not sent at the Instagram. I tried to sent from my sandbox user to a normal user. Need to be both sandbox users ?
