Usage info

This method is no longer functional and the behavior it controlled is no longer offered. The method will no longer exist beginning May 8, 2018.

This method once told the messaging server that the authenticated user was currently active, preventing Slack from automatically changing their status to Away.

The Slack messaging server no longer offers this functionality and this method now performs no operation.

To change a user's presence, call the users.setPresence method. Consult the presence documentation for more details.
