How to make my slackbot reply in a thread, instead of to entire channel in Slack

I am doing slack to ServiceNow integration which is working fine. I am trying to reply to a thread instead of posting a message to a channel.

Currently i am using https://slack.com/api/chat.postMessage which is reply to a channel but not to a thread. I tried looking document but not able to find the an api to reply a thread.

Can anyone please help me the right api to reply to a thread instead of to a channel

There is an optional parameter to that method called thread_ts which lets you specify a parent message ts to which you'd like your message added as a threaded reply.
