Hi Bhavesh,

Greetings from ShepHertz !!!!!!!!!

You can create a json String  with image url or local icon name and send in chat API. On the receiver side you can parse the chat message. For e.g.

{"image":"smile.png","message":"Hello"}

Let me know if it helps.

i am sending image from my android device so receiver may not have image at that specific url then how should  i display image ?

In that case you can send image URL that can be downloaded that side

can you please give me one sample example ?

{"image":"https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSVLBxDynohm2Prl2vsElFobvJWNx5V3l1hikb4PJ538hHjfe9fp5p02Do","message":"Hello"}
You can parse Json on receiver side and get the value from image Node and can show accordingly.

how can i pass json in sendChat() api and how can i differentiate simple text message and json object ?

Pass Json as String, use json.toString() for that.
