To reply to an existing message, call ReplyToActivity in .NET or session.send in Node.js. The Bot Builder SDK handles all the details.

If you choose to use the REST API, you can also call the /v3/conversations/{conversationId}/activities/{activityId} endpoint.

Thanks,

  Expected behaviour is not achieved in both ReplyToActivity and REST API.

    Session.send is not available for Bot Builder Typescript SDK 3.0.
    We will test the REST API and update you soon.
