Hi Viral,

I see from your screenshot that you’re calling the `channels/:channel_id/messages` endpoint (see docs), which is the Send a message endpoint - this sends outbound messages only, so this endpoint will never produce an inbound message.

Note; Front’s definitions for inbound vs outbound:

  • Inbound - a message from an external sender, to a Front Channel.
  • Outbound - a message from a Front channel to an external recipient.

Could you share in a little more detail what you’re trying to build here? If you need to share any sensitive data, feel free to reach out directly to api@frontapp.com and we’ll be happy to inspect your account configuration.
