Historical Messages

[nthnyvllflrs]

Hi there everyone, I was looking for resources on how I can populate historical messages, I tried manually setting the timestamp of the message in the payload, but it didn't work.

I currently have a working application service bridge, which receives and sends out messages. Any suggestions on how I can do historical messages, or any resource will help, thank you.

If anyone might have the same problem, this is how I solved it, thru application service bridge.

# matrix url
url = f"https://{HOMESERVER}/_matrix/client/v3/rooms/{room_id}/send/m.room.message?ts={timestamp}" 

# request payload
payload = {
    "msgtype": "m.text",
    "body": f"{message} - {convert_date}", 
} 

# submit request
response = requests.post(url, headers=REQUEST_HEADERS, json=payload)
