`KeyError` when bridging Zulip to Element

Hi, using the zulip api, I can't connect my zulip server to Matrix (element.org) because this raises an error.

I followed the steps described in the docs, and here is the error:

Starting matrix mirroring bot (this may take a minute)
Traceback (most recent call last):

Here is my matrix bridge config:

[matrix]
host = https://matrix.org
mxid = @nvimts-bot:matrix.org
password = <redacted>
room_id = #nvim-treesitter:matrix.org

[zulip]
email = nvim-treesitter-bridge-bot@zulipchat.com
api_key = <redacted>
site = https://nvim-treesitter.zulipchat.com
stream = general
topic = Gitter

Sorry for the late response. Will be fixed in #755.

Hi again, it looks like the bridge does not work though now. It does not send messages on the matrix side

rht commented

Note that the messages sent by the Matrix account used as the bridging bot won't be relayed over, because otherwise we will get infinite mirroring. You have to test sending from a different Matrix account. This fact probably needs to be documented.

Yeah yeah I did not do that, using my own acount on both sides it does not go over

It was an issue on my end, I forgot to subscribe the bot to the stream, sorry !
