Notes: Jira ticket

When using an Interactive Message in a direct message channel, the teamId field in the request is empty.

Propose we add the the id of the team that the user is currently viewing via model.PostActionIntegrationRequest.

I'd like to do this one.

Wow, you are working on a lot of issue. Thanks for this @carmo-evan! :+1:

@hanzei @jasonblais the conversation about this has stalled here

[jasonblais]

@hanzei what would be your thoughts on Jesse's response at https://community.mattermost.com/core/pl/y5rkx45ccbfqbno15zaq9uxwhy ?

[hanzei]

I've responded in the thread. Sorry for the delay.

This issue with be fixed in a different way. See https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-webapp/pull/3313 for more details.

Is this fixed in Mattermost 5.18.0 ?

I'm seeing unexpected behavior that might be caused by the issue described here: interactive buttons/menus do not work in a direct message.

Using Chrome dev tools, I can see the webapp post to http://localhost:8065/api/v4/posts/zcrco8hbppbutgyazoahngfgca/actions/tiprgoyh53fj3edmfi6q3thkye and get back a response like this:

{"id":"store.sql_team.get.find.app_error","message":"Unable to find the existing team","detailed_error":"","request_id":"s3tbgf44cfb7dyszioobwa63yh","status_code":404}

I would expect that either:

1) Interactive messages are not supported in direct messages, and I shouldn't be able to post one there.
2) Interactive messages are supported in direct messages, and when clicking a button my registered integration endpoint should receive a payload (with or without a team id).

Am I missing something? How do I get an issue raised for this? Thanks.
