New Dashboard Functionality: Edit Chat Resources
Blog post from Stream
Stream Chat has introduced a new tool called Chat Explorer within its dashboard, designed to visualize and manage application resources like users, messages, and channels. This feature is especially useful for debugging, allowing users to create, read, update, and delete resources while in both production and development modes. Users can search and filter resources by various parameters, and updates to resources are confirmed with a visual cue in the interface. Although certain values within resources cannot be edited, Stream Chat is open to feedback on which ones should be made editable. Additionally, new resources can be created, and existing ones can be permanently deleted with a confirmation process to prevent accidental removal. For further technical details and a video walkthrough, users are encouraged to visit Stream Chat's GitHub or contact their Technical Product Manager, Nico Lewis, for feedback.
