Hi,
we currently have the following Problem:
The Lithium platform provides Q&A:
Structure can be like this
Question
Comment1 on Question
Answer 1
Comment1 on Answer 1
Comment2 on Answer 1
Answer 2
Comment1 on Answer 2
Comment2 on Answer 2
What we want to do:
When a user of our tool selects “Comment1 on Question” they can answer add a new comment to the Question => Comment2 on Question The parent for this action is Question
When a user selects “Comment1 on Answer 1” they can add a new comment to the answer => Comment3 on Answer 1 The parent for this action is Answer1
Now to our problem: To do what we want to do we need to know if we are a comment on the question or if we are an Answer => But we cant! At least we think we cannot.
Maybe you can help us with that.

As you can see there is no siginificant difference in the response for the comment or the answer that can help us decide if it is a comment or an answer…
They both have the same parent and root. We tried it with “message/id/{id}/depth” but that also returns 1 for both (which of course is correct…) Also tried other
Properties but no luck. To our knowledge there does not seem to be a property “message-type” that could help us with that.
Did we miss something?
Thanks,
Bastian
