How to be notified for typing events for all channels

[lukicmarko]

Describe the bug
I want to be informed whenever someone starts or ends typing in any channel where the current user is a participant.
I tried 2 options, but no callback is called.

SDK version

• 5.17.6

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Subscribe to the specific events, but no callback is called.

      viewLifecycleOwner.lifecycleScope.launch {
            chatClient.globalState.typingChannels.collect {
                println("Keys: " + it.keys)
                println("TYPING CHANNELS $it")
            }
        }

        // Add typing start event handling
        chatClient.subscribeFor<TypingStartEvent> { typingStartEvent ->
            // Handle event
            println("TYPING start event $typingStartEvent")

        }

       // Add typing stop event handling
        chatClient.subscribeFor<TypingStopEvent> { typingStopEvent ->
            // Handle event
            println("TYPING end event $typingStopEvent")
        }

Expected behavior
Expect that the methods listed above be called.

Hello @lukicmarko

Are you "watching" the channels?
TypingStartEvent and TypingStopEvent events are only received for channels that you are already watching.
Watching channels can be achieved by including watch = true when query channels or by individual channel calling ChannelClient.watch()
Here you can find the docs
