Hi, I would to implement the "Quote in Reply" (https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2023/05/quote-previous-message-google-chat.html) functionality through the chat API. I have looked at the documentation for creating a message though API(https://developers.google.com/chat/api/reference/rest/v1/spaces.messages/create) but could not find anything related to this.

I have checked the thead.thread_key option which creates a new thread but i do not wish to create/reply to a thread.

I have checked the response of a message which user has created using "Quote in Reply" from the browser and the response contains quotedMessageMetadata (https://developers.google.com/chat/api/reference/rest/v1/spaces.messages#quotedmessagemetadata) and its described as output only in the API docs. However when we are creating a new message through the API there is no option to mention the same (checked in API documentation).

Could you please let me know,

• if there is a way to achieve this functionality through API?
• if possible in future, what is the expected release date?
