How to enable sending to private channels?
While both the public and private channels are shown in the menu, you won’t receive the report to a private channel without explicitly adding the Screenful app to that channel. To add the Screenful app, go to the channel where you want to send the report to, and click open the drop down menu on top:
Select Integrations, and click Add an App
Search for Screenful and click Add
You have now successfully added the Screenful app to your private channel and you can start sending reports to that channel.
For public channels, there is no need to manually add the app as it automatically joins the corresponding channel.
