# Channel Actions
2+
3+
Inside channels, you can also do more than post messages and upload files. Increase your interaction with messages through Channel actions.
4+
5+
## Find channel actions
6+
7+
To find channel actions, go to the right of the channel title and click the menu.
8+
9+
{% hint style="info" %}
10+
Channel actions vary depending on the server configuration, so the items listed below might not all be visible in your installation.

{% endhint %}

# Channel Info
2+
3+
Here you can see all kinds of information about the current channel. If you admin permissions, you can edit this information. These are the channel info options:
4+
5+
* **Channel Name**: The channel's name, how users see the title and find the channel via search.
6+
* **Topic**: The topic shows next to the title on the channel header. Great for giving more info about the channel.
7+
* **Announcement**: Announcements post in a bar under the channel header.
8+
* **Description**: The description of the channel.
9+
* **Private**: Tells whether a channel is private and can set the channel to private or public.
10+
* **Read Only**: Tells whether a channel is read-only and toggles the read-only status on the channel. In read-only channels, only people with admin permissions can post messages. Good for announcements channels.
11+
* **Archived**: Tells if a channel is archived and toggles the archived status of a channel. Nobody can post messages in an archived channel, and channel search will not find that channel.
12+
* **Password**: Tells whether a channel has a password and let you set the password. If a channel has a password, other users need to enter the password to become a channel's member.
13+
14+
If a [retention policy](../../../administrator-guides/retention-policies.md) is active on this channel, a red warning box appears stating when messages or files are deleted.

# Prune Messages from a Channel
2+
3+
If you are a server admin, or your admin has given you the **clean-channel-history** permission, the **prune messages** option allows you to delete messages from a channel swiftly.
4+
5+
_Note: Messages and files deleted with this option are deleted forever and cannot be recovered. Be careful and double-check your arguments before pressing Prune._
6+
7+
Use the following parameters to delete specific messages:
8+
9+
* `Newer than`: Deletes all messages posted **after** a particular date.
10+
* `Older than`: Deletes all messages posted **before** a particular date.
11+
12+
Fill dates for both the `Newer than` and `Older than` fields to delete all messages.
13+
14+
* `Users`: Allows you to specify any users to delete the content. When filled with a username, that user's messages deleted.
15+
16+
Refine the parameters above with the following options. Check each to enable:
17+
18+
* **Inclusive**: Deletes all messages that land on the exact start/end times you have specified in the `Newer than` and `Older than` fields.
19+
* **Exclude pinned messages**: Do **not** delete pinned messages.
20+
* **Only remove the attached files, keep messages**: Removes files but not the messages themselves

# Search Messages in a Channel
2+
3+
Rocket.Chat search supports basic search commands which work like Gmail search.
4+
5+
Rocket.Chat also supports the use of "[regular expressions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression)." Regular expressions provide flexibility to search chat entries in any language, even the ones traditionally a challenge like "CJK" languages \(Chinese, Japanese, Korean\).
6+
7+
### Basic Search Commands
8+
9+
You can use these commands before or after entering search terms:
10+
11+
* `from:me` to search for messages only created by the current user.
12+
* `from:user.name` to search for messages created by a specific user. The username entered must be the format without spaces \(i.e., "john.doe" and not "John Doe."\) Search for any mentions of a user by searching for their username.
13+
* `has:star` returns messages that are starred by the current user.
14+
* `is:pinned` or `has:pin` returns messages that pin in the current channel.
15+
* `has:url` or `has:link` returns messages that contain a link.
16+
* `has:location` or `has:map` returns messages that have a location attached.
17+
* `before:dd/mm/yyyy`, `after:dd/mm/yyyy` and `on:dd/mm/yyyy` return message that was created before, after, or on the provided date.
18+
19+
Dashes `dd-mm-yyyy` or dots `dd.mm.yyyy` can be used instead of slashes. `order:asc`, `order:ascend`, or `order:ascending` sorts messages by ascending timestamp.
20+
21+
* `order:desc`, `order:descend`, or `order:descending` sorts messages by descending timestamp.
22+
23+
You can also jump to where a message is located by hovering the mouse over the search result and selecting `jump to message.`
24+
25+
### Regex
26+
27+

# Streaming in a Channel
2+
3+
## Streaming
4+
5+
If the feature [Youtube Livestream](../../../administrator-guides/youtube-broadcasting.md) is enabled, the **Streaming** Tab activates on the channel actions menu.
6+
7+
Through the **Streaming** tab, owners of the channel of server admins can start streaming or add another stream to the channel using a URL.
8+
9+
### Start a stream
10+
11+
_Note: Depending on the settings of the server, you might be only able to link live streams from Youtube. In doubt ,always ask your server's admin._
12+
13+
1. Press the **Broadcast my Camera** button.
14+
2. Login with a Google account. Remember that streaming must be activated through your Youtube account. For more information, see [Introduction to live streaming](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2474026?hl=en) Google guide\).
15+
16+
To add a different Livestream, get the URL \(must be from Youtube\) for the stream, enter it into the **Livestream source** field, and hit save.
17+
18+
You can also add a message whenever the stream is unavailable in the **Livestream not available message** field.
19+
20+
To add a stream with no video and only audio, use the **Enable audio-only button**.
21+
22+
### \(Users\) Start a Live Stream
23+
24+
If you are not a channel owner and there is already a live stream set to that channel, press **play** on the stream tab. This starts a pop-up with the stream embedded. The pop-up does not close even if you change channels.
