Slack event message.im not being triggered

I'm trying to get the event to be triggered when someone sends a message on a private conversation in slack, I've already registered the event subscription (message.im) in the subscribe to bot events section, made sure that the needed scope was added (im:history), and reinstalled the app on my workspace.

Also tried signing out of the workspace and logging in again.

Yet, even if it is the admin sending a message to a user or a user sending a message to the admin (or in any other case with other users) the Event is not being triggered.

Any help or suggestion of why could this be happening?

Thanks!

You receive this event when a user sends a direct message to your bot/app.

You wouldn't receive this event when a user sends a message to another user, because the bot is not a part of that conversation.
