Signal event required text params and docs updates

[roman-rr]

I'm trying to send signal as its in docs

pubnub.signal({
  message: "typing:start",
  channel: "channel_name"
});

Then I have successful status on callback, but even't didn't received in any event listener under channel channel_name subscriptions.

When I send it like so:

pubnub.signal({
  message: {text: "typing:start"},
  channel: "channel_name"
});

Event's successfully received on event listeners.

Is it bug or missing ?

"pubnub" : "8.2.4"

Thank for swift reply. Should I update payload with text, or waiting for the fix?

It depends on from your needs. If by your application design you need strings, then I would suggest waiting a bit for release.
