Thanks for the ticket, posting your comment from that thread, it's good notes:

I don't know if this makes any sense, but I wonder if I'm looking for something like

1) pass an actor ref A to constructor of graph stage 2) get "replyTo" ref using getStageActorRef 3) send a message to A with replyTo as a property.

Here is a code sample I wrote with a possible usage of getStageActor (note that getStageActorRef has been changed to getStageActor):

Cool, thanks for the example! Will have a look soon at it (team is a bit traveling and in meetings this week, so sorry for the delays).

I took liberty to fix the typo right away, thanks for pointing out the typo on akka-user 👍 PR here: https://github.com/akka/akka/pull/23097
