Hey Developers,
We will be removing the api proxy online status endpoint on January 31st, 2023 :
Please switch over to the following replacement endpoints on presence api:
Thank you all for raising concerns about the incorrect last online time field in /v1/presence/users. Due to technical constraints, we have decided to deprecate the last online field in /v1/presence/users and introduce a supplementary endpoint which exposes last online date information (/v1/presence/last-online).
