SendMessageDisallowedIndicator

Renders the indicator shown when the current user cannot send messages in the channel. This is the default component for the SendMessageDisallowedIndicator prop.

Best Practices

  • Show a clear reason or guidance when sending is disallowed.
  • Keep the indicator unobtrusive but visible.
  • Update it based on real-time permission changes.
  • Avoid placing interactive elements that imply sending is possible.
  • Override via Channel prop for consistent styling.
