# Channel Resource

> \[!CAUTION]
>
> Programmable Chat has been deprecated and is no longer supported. Instead, we'll be focusing on the next generation of chat: Twilio Conversations. Find out more about the [EOL process here](https://www.twilio.com/en-us/changelog/programmable-chat-end-of-life-notice).
>
> If you're starting a new project, please visit the [Conversations Docs](/docs/conversations) to begin. If you've already built on Programmable Chat, please visit our [Migration Guide](/docs/conversations/migrating-chat-conversations) to learn about how to switch.

A Channel resource of Programmable Chat represents a chat room, which is a familiar concept for what is, programmatically, a scope in which [Messages](/docs/chat/rest/message-resource) can be sent and received by its members. [Members](/docs/chat/rest/member-resource) can be added or invited to join channels and [Channels](/docs/chat/rest/channel-resource) exist within a Chat [Service](/docs/chat/rest/service-resource) scope.

Channels can have an optional `unique_name` that can replace the Channel's `{ChannelSid}` in the URL. This allows a channel to be named something specific and be addressed by that name. A Channel's `unique_name` must be unique within its Service instance.

The [User Channels](/docs/chat/rest/user-channel-resource) resource lists all the Channels to which a specific User is a Member.

## Twilio Console

Chat Channels are organized by their Chat service. You can view that Channels in a Chat service by using your [Twilio console when logged in to the console](/console/chat/services) and selecting the Chat Service from the list. Within a Chat Service, you can browse its Channels.

## Channel Properties

Each Channel resource contains these properties.

```json
