[SOLVED] OriginalRepliedMessageSid field is missing in twilio whatsapp response body webhook?

OriginalRepliedMessageSid field is missing in twilio whatsapp response body webhook?

I'm making a POST request to receive inbound WhatsApp messages from the Twilio webhook (using the Twilio sandbox). When I reply to a message sent from the Twilio WhatsApp number to my WhatsApp number, I expect to see the OriginalRepliedMessageSid field in the body. This field helps us retrieve the original message that is being replied to. However, I don't see this field in the body I receive from the Twilio webhook. Does the sandbox environment omit fields like this?

I receive this body:

{
  SmsMessageSid: 'SM329cc4a27d05a24d83e8ad2f0cdbebf5',
  NumMedia: '0',
  ProfileName: 'My name',
  MessageType: 'text',
  SmsSid: 'SM329cc4a27d05a24d83e8ad2f0cdbebf5',
  WaId: '84913289351',
  SmsStatus: 'received',
  Body: 'reply message 4',
  To: 'whatsapp:twiliotestnumber',
  NumSegments: '1',
  ReferralNumMedia: '0',
  MessageSid: 'SM329cc4a27d05a24d83e8ad2f0cdbebf5',
  AccountSid: 'AC98b7b479eabe2d1622389faebb93e666',
  From: 'whatsapp:mynumber',
  ApiVersion: '2010-04-01'
}

I expect to have field OriginalRepliedMessageSid in this body: Twilio docs

Solution

You are right, this is a limitation we currently have in our sandbox. Sorry for the inconvenience.

However, it will work exactly like that once you leave the sandbox environment and start using a production-ready sender.
