Unable to get DirectMessage

[seeramzan]

Hi,

Please bear me because i am newbie

I am trying to send welcome message to new joined user. Message in channel is working fine but when i am trying to send the direct message i am getting following error

ERROR Unable to get DirectMessage Room ID: {"isClientSafe":true,"error":"error-not-allowed","reason":"Target user not allowed to receive messages","details":{"method":"createDirectMessage"},"message":"Target user not allowed to receive messages [error-not-allowed]","errorType":"Meteor.Error"} Reason: Target user not allowed to receive messages

I have given all the rights to user, i tried following line of codes and getting error on both.

robot.adapter.sendDirect({ user: { name: "user1"} }, "message here")
res.res.sendDirect "message here"

Problem what i observed is : Since user is not logged in that's why receiving this error. If a user is logged in and use that user then its sending the direct message
