Send Quoted Message
Send Quoted Messages¶
Send a message that quotes or replies to a previous message. This is useful for maintaining conversational context.
To send a quoted message, include the quoted_message_id parameter with the ID of the message you want to reply to. The message ID (msgId) is returned in the success response of any message you send.
You can reply to any type of message (text, image, document, etc.) by providing quoted_message_id along with the content of your new message. If the original message is not found in the store, you can include the quoted_message parameter as a fallback text to display in the quoted bubble.
