Not able to send messages to specific user based on the userID through slack's incoming webhook
<p>I am able to send messages to specific user based on the channel, But i want to send messages based on userID, so i tried to get the userID of the specific user, but strangely am getting the userID of the SlackBot(slack's inbuilt bot) irrespective of the who the user is...</p>

<p>here is the slack doc which says we can use channelID or userID to send to particular channel: <a href="https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks</a></p>

<pre><code>"channel": "U024BE7LH" ---userID
"channel": "D7Y15W6PF" ---channelID
</code></pre>

<p>In a nutshell, the problem is: am able to get the channel ID of a particular user, but the userID am getting for any user is: U3WQ78KNS (which is user ID of slack's SlackBot)</p>

<p>Please let me know about this strange behavior.</p>
