Overhear in general channel, reply privately

#1

Hi!

From what I am reading, it seems like this is possible but I can’t quite get it to work.

This is relevant to a Telegram/Slack bot:
The idea would be that a user asks something from the FAQ in the general/main channel. The bot is set up to trigger a flow on overhearing this quesiton.

Is it possible for the bot to engage the user privately so that the conversation does not end up in the main channel?
