Hi,
I have a use case where I want to fetch all the channels the user is part of using the user's delegated token. Currently using the API ListAllChannel OR ListChannel
user receives the channel which the user is not part of ex- A pvt channel created by some other member which the user is not part of also shows up in the response of the API.
Please let me know if it's possible or not.
Thanks!

Revanth Murigipudi 0 Reputation points2023-08-18T12:15:24.9066667+00:00 The endpoint only gives us the user joined teams. We want to fetch only the channels the user is a part of in a particular team.
If we use the delegated token of an "admin" and use the List allChannels API, the response contains even the private channels and shared channels this user is not a part of in that particular team. (on the teams app, even though he's an admin, he cannot view these channels, but in API response they show up)
The same issue if a user is "Owner" of a team - If there are private channels in this team that the user is not part of, these channels won't appear in the teams app, but they appear in the API response!
Could you kindly help us out if there is an API for our requirement please. Thank you!

The current List AllChannel endpoint returns even the private channels and shared channels in 2 situations.
- If user is "Admin"
- If user is "Owner" of a team
In both the cases listed above, if there is a team with private channels, shared channels which the user is not part of (these channels won't show up in teams app), but these channels information is returned in the API response!
Ideally, we would like to have only the channels information the user can access/is part of. But the current channel endpoints do not seem to support this functionality. Kindly correct me if I'm wrong.
Could you help us out in this usecase please? Thank you!
