Send your own reply
send_replyAnswers an inbound reply with your own message, in the same email thread and from the mailbox the conversation runs through (in a conversation the prospect started, your mailbox they wrote to). It works for every inbound reply, including the ones Emailchaser writes no AI draft for (wrong_person, uncategorized), and it is how you send a second message in a conversation that went quiet: answer the prospect's latest reply again. The message is scheduled at once, goes out within about a minute and cannot be recalled; its status then moves from scheduled to sent in the lead's conversation. Only id and body are required. Leave to out to Reply All: the person who wrote goes in To and everyone else they addressed in Cc, never one of your own mailboxes. Set to to choose the recipients yourself: then to, cc and bcc are used exactly as given (cc is only read together with to; bcc works either way), at most 20 addresses in all. There is no subject: the answer keeps the thread's subject with "Re: " in front, so the thread never breaks. contentType is "text" by default; use "html" only when body is HTML (paragraphs, line breaks, bold, italics, links, lists and headings are kept; images, tables and inline styles are removed). Merge tags such as {first_name} and spintax such as {Hi|Hello} are filled in when it sends. No signature is added: put yours in body. attachments takes at most 5 files, 10 MB in total. Refused with 409 when the id is not an inbound reply or an identical body went to it less than 60 seconds ago (so a retry after a timeout never sends twice), 422 when there is no connected sender mailbox or recipient, the lead has unsubscribed or an earlier email to the recipient hard-bounced, and 429 after 20 answers to one reply in an hour. Needs a read & write key. API reference: https://www.emailchaser.com/docs/api-reference/replies
