Reply to a message with a webhook

I have this code to send a message by a webhook. I want to reply to the same message, but it's not working as expected. Is there any way to add a reply message through webhook to the same message sent before by webhook?

webhook = await channel.create_webhook(name=message.author.name)
msg = await webhook.send(content = str(result.text))
await msg.reply('TEST')

As of today, replying to messages using webhooks is not possible.

https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/issues/2251

I doubt it'll never be implemented, see my comment

To get the actual message when sending it with a webhook you need to add the wait=True keyword argument.

webhook = await channel.create_webhook(name=message.author.name)
msg = await webhook.send(content=str(result.text), wait=True)
await msg.reply('TEST')
