Question

Chatbot reply returns 201 but is invisible under user messages

Hello Zoom Support,

Our chatbot receives @mentions in a Team Chat channel successfully.

POST /v2/im/chat/messages returns HTTP 201 when using reply_to,
but the reply is invisible under the user's original message.
Replying to the bot's own messages works correctly.

We verified that to_jid is the correct channel JID and reply_to
matches the original webhook message_id. The same issue occurs
with direct API calls outside n8n.

Please trace why the user-parent reply returns 201 but does not
appear, while the bot-parent reply works.

Thank you.
