Add a Reaction

Concepts

The addReaction mutation allows the API caller to add a reaction to a message. The mutation accepts a Message ID (targetId) and a reaction as arguments, and makes the request on behalf of the caller, adding the specified reaction to the message. The result will reflect the current count of users that reacted with the same reaction (string/emoji), and viewerHasReacted as to whether the caller has reacted (true).

Schema

Add Reaction Mutation

type MutationRoot {
  ...
  addReaction(input: AddReactionInput!): AddReactionMutation
}

type Reaction {
  reaction: String!
  count: Int
  viewerHasReacted: Boolean!
}

type AddReactionMutation {
  reaction: Reaction!
}

type AddReactionInput {
  targetId: String!
  reaction: String!
}
