reply to a newly created tweet

How can I send a tweet as a reply to a tweet I just sent with this package? I want to send 5 images. But since the limit is 4, I want to send the fifth as a response to the tweet

Hi!

You can reply to an existing tweet using its ID.

const mediaIds = []

for (const image of images) {
  // upload your images...
  const mediaId = await client.v1.uploadMedia(image)
  mediaIds.push(mediaId)
}

// only keep the 4 first images
const firstImages = mediaIds.slice(0, 4)
const remainingImages = mediaIds.slice(4)

// Send your first tweet
const tweet = await client.v1.tweet('Status text', { media_ids: firstImages })

// Reply to the first one
await client.v1.reply(
  'reply to previously created tweet.',
  tweet.id_str,
  { media_ids: remainingImages },
);

Thanks. She was using id, and didn't know she had to use id_str
