How to create a draft message in existing thread with gmail API
Using the python google client I able to create new messages within an existing thread with id threadId as follows:
message = (service.users().messages().send(userId='me', body={'threadId': <threadId>}, media_body=message['media_body'])
.execute())
(here I'm using media_body as it supports the /upload endpoint for large attachments)
This works fine for messages, and the threadId optional parameter is documented at https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/users/messages/send
However I have been unsuccessful doing the same when creating new draft messages, and don't see any docs about it at https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/users/drafts/create
I tried adding threadId to the draft body when doing draft = service.users().drafts().create(userId=user_id, body={'threadId': <threadId>}, media_body=message_body['media_body']).execute() at the create draft stage and it simply is ignored.
I also tried adding threadId to the body at the send draft stage: message = service.users().drafts().send( userId='me', body={'id': draft_id, threadId': <threadId>}).execute() and this was also ignored.
Either way the draft message just gets created in its own, new thread.
How can I create a new draft message within an existing thread with the gmail API (and specifically with Python client)?

As per documentation, a draft can be added to a thread as part of creating, updating, or sending a draft message.
In order to be part of a thread, a message or draft must meet the following criteria:
- The requested
threadIdmust be specified on theMessageor
Draft.Messageyou supply with your request.
- The
ReferencesandIn-Reply-Toheaders must be set in compliance
with the RFC 2822 standard.
- The
Subjectheaders must match.
The documentation also states that in both examples for creating a draft and sending a message, you would simply add a threadId key paired with a thread ID to a message's metadata, the message object.
