    }
    return string.Empty;
}

Can you help me with this code, as it only returns Bad Request. I’ve already used content json1 and json2, it generates the same error. Which fields are mandatory, do they have a correct sequence?

Hi @igorsaints
Thanks for reaching out to us!
Have you been able to troubleshoot this on your end?

3

I managed to do it, but I can’t get the message reply event from a chat.

4

How do I add the chat message read and write scope and how do I trigger a chat message replied in a specific channel. I need to take a message forwarded in a channel and send it to an API.
