I’ve created a new design with a left sidebar containing a list of users and groups. When a user clicks on an item, the corresponding chat list is displayed. Users can chat either in groups or one-on-one. I’m trying to manage this using channels and subchannels, as I have two lists: one for users and another based on the selected item, which shows additional options to chat.

I referred to the Amity documentation for channels and subchannels, but I encountered an issue where I’m unable to add users to a subchannel. I need help in resolving this and determining how to handle this flow efficiently.

Hello @girishspark, subchannels are part of a channel, serving as separate topics or chat threads within it. Once a user is a member of the main channel, they should have access to all subchannels within that channel.

**Docs:** [https://docs.amity.co/amity-sdk/chat/channels/subchannel](https://docs.amity.co/amity-sdk/chat/channels/subchannel)

As subchannels are simply topics within a channel, users are not meant to be added to them.
