create method

Future<Message> create(Message request, String parent, { String? messageId, String? messageReplyOption, String? requestId, String? threadKey, String? $fields, })

Creates a message in a Google Chat space.

For an example, see Create a message. Calling this method requires authentication and supports the following authentication types: - For text messages, user authentication or app authentication are supported. - For card messages, only app authentication is supported. (Only Chat apps can create card messages.)

request - The metadata request object.

Request parameters:

parent - Required. The resource name of the space in which to create a message. Format: spaces/{space} Value must have pattern ^spaces/\[^/\]+$.

messageId - Optional. A custom ID for a message. Lets Chat apps get, update, or delete a message without needing to store the system-assigned ID in the message's resource name (represented in the message name field). The value for this field must meet the following requirements: * Begins with client-. For example, client-custom-name is a valid custom ID, but custom-name is not. * Contains up to 63 characters and only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens. * Is unique within a space. A Chat app can't use the same custom ID for different messages. For details, see Name a message.

messageReplyOption - Optional. Specifies whether a message starts a thread or replies to one. Only supported in named spaces. Possible string values are:

• "MESSAGE_REPLY_OPTION_UNSPECIFIED" : Default. Starts a new thread. Using this option ignores any thread ID or thread_key that's included.
• "REPLY_MESSAGE_FALLBACK_TO_NEW_THREAD" : Creates the message as a reply to the thread specified by thread ID or thread_key. If it fails, the message starts a new thread instead.
• "REPLY_MESSAGE_OR_FAIL" : Creates the message as a reply to the thread specified by thread ID or thread_key. If a new thread_key is used, a new thread is created. If the message creation fails, a NOT_FOUND error is returned instead.

requestId - Optional. A unique request ID for this message. Specifying an existing request ID returns the message created with that ID instead of creating a new message.

threadKey - Optional. Deprecated: Use thread.thread_key instead. ID for the thread. Supports up to 4000 characters. To start or add to a thread, create a message and specify a threadKey or the thread.name. For example usage, see Start or reply to a message thread.

$fields - Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

Completes with a Message.

Completes with a commons.ApiRequestError if the API endpoint returned an error.

If the used http.Client completes with an error when making a REST call, this method will complete with the same error.
