POST /startTypingSimulates the "typing..." status in a specific chat. This indicates to the recipient that a message is being composed.Developer Tips & Best Practices:
Engagement: Use this immediately before sending a response, especially if your bot needs a few seconds to process data (e.g., generating an AI reply or fetching data from a CRM). It keeps the user engaged and prevents them from thinking the bot has stalled.
Duration: The typing status is ephemeral. It will automatically disappear after a short period or as soon as a message is sent. You don't always need to call stopTyping explicitly unless you want to cancel the indicator without sending a message.
