Hi @Albertkaruna,

Thank you for choosing Photon!

I don't understand what is the issue here.

Photon Chat allow you to send private messages from a single user to a single user using a single method call.

I was tried but it wasn't working.
If you got any sample code, please show me that.

Photon "private channels" can have only two users.
You can use "public channels" with a name shared between few users (more than 2) so it work as "private channels" others can't see/subscribe to unless they guess the name.

I've tried to use the private chat but still, i can't get the result. The examples that you're given doesn't have any examples for a private chat. So, please give me some example code.
Thank you.

To send private message:

chatClient.SendPrivateMessage(TargetUserId, message);

To recieve private message:

public class ChatClient : IChatClientListener {

public void OnPrivateMessage(string sender, object message, string channelName )  
{  
     
}
