Reply to a Message

In addition to creating top-level messages, Amity Chat SDK also allows you to reply to existing messages. To reply to a message, you'll need to specify the parent message's parentMessageId as one of the parameters. This allows the SDK to associate the new message as a reply to the parent comment.

Similar to creating a top-level message, you can use the SDK's optimistic creation feature to create a reply message.

import { MessageRepository } from '@amityco/js-sdk'
​
const message = { ... };
​
MessageRepository.createTextMessage({
  channelId: 'channelId',
  text: 'reply message',
  parentId: message.messageId
});
