Add or toggle a reaction on a message

Adds or toggles a reaction through one channel-agnostic conversation endpoint.

POST/api/conversations/{id}/messages/{messageId}/reactions

Adds or toggles a reaction through one channel-agnostic conversation endpoint. The server resolves the authoritative conversation channel: Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp mutate the provider first, while local chat channels update Convor directly. API keys cannot create reactions. Visitor callers can only react inside their own conversations. The legacy userId body field is still required, but the server stores the authenticated caller ID instead of trusting the body value. The response includes a monotonically increasing revision that orders reaction snapshots delivered over HTTP and realtime.

Endpoint requirements

Credentials
Use either Bearer API key or X-API-Key header.
Required scope
conversations:write
Module
Automation & API module (api_access)
Organization and site scope
Requests can access only resources owned by the authenticated organization. The API does not reveal whether an identifier belongs to another organization or site.
Retry behavior
Non-idempotent: Repeating this request may create duplicate work or side effects. After an ambiguous timeout, check the resource state before retrying.

Path Parameters

id*string

Resource identifier.

Match^([0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[1-8][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[89abAB][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}|00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000|ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff)$
Formatuuid
messageId*string

Resource identifier.

Match^([0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[1-8][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[89abAB][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}|00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000|ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff)$
Formatuuid

Header Parameters

X-Project-Id?|

DA-4035: selects the active site (project) for project-scoped operations. Accepts a site UUID, or the literal all to aggregate across every accessible site on read-only aggregate routes (single-or-all-read). Mutations and single-site routes reject all. Path-owned project routes (/api/projects/{projectId}/…) resolve the site from the URL and ignore this header. Conflicting selectors across header/query/body/path return PROJECT_CONTEXT_CONFLICT (400); an archived site returns PROJECT_ARCHIVED (410).
