    Open Team Management and click on the Chat tab.
  2. 2
    You see a list of team members in the sidebar.

    Click a team member's name to open a direct message.
  4. 4
    Type your message and press Enter to send.
  5. 5
    Use the general team channel for announcements relevant to everyone.
  6. 6
    You can share links to streams, videos, or external resources directly in chat.
  7. 7
    Team members receive a notification badge when they have unread messages.

Expected result

Your team can communicate in real time without leaving the DCAST dashboard.

Common problems

I do not see any team members in the chat sidebar.

Only team members who have accepted their invitation appear in chat. Pending members are not shown.

A message I sent is not showing up.

Refresh the chat panel. If it still does not appear, check your internet connection.

I am not receiving notifications.
