Is there a way to get messages sent whilst the bot is disconnected? The kik app receives offline messages when signed in again.

Did you try retrieving history?

SunnyWireless commented 2 years ago

I mean people who sent a first message, what would show as chat requests in the app.

Yeah, as tomer said you'd need to request history for these messages to show up when you login again. The api won't request history be default.

You can request history using the request_messaging_history method, this is probably tha API you're looking for: https://github.com/tomer8007/kik-bot-api-unofficial/blob/1cc91cf3c83df247bd41908a7f4461e711744385/kik_unofficial/client.py#L390
