I 'm trying to use a sendMultipleFilesMessage.  
However, after sending the files, the channel is not updated.

And, I’m trying to refresh using currentGroupChannel in useChannelContext, but it doesn’t work.

Hello @loel

To update the channel after sending multiple files, you can use the `refresh` method on the `currentGroupChannel` object in the `useChannelContext`.

If you are already using that and still facing some issues then can you share your code snippets and UIkit version which you are using?
