Send a message in an existing Apple Messages for Business conversation. from is the Apple business identifier and to is the customer’s opaque identifier for that business. An unknown conversation returns 404; a closed conversation returns 422. Only the customer can reopen a conversation.
Choose text, rich_link, or interactive content. Interactive content contains a quick reply, list picker, event, form, or custom iMessage app. Native payment and authentication requests are not available through this public operation. Device support varies; an unsupported interaction returns 422.
Supply attachment URLs or reusable Apple references. Bird downloads source URLs and uploads the files before sending. Interactive images must be PNG files up to 200 kB each, totaling at most 5 MB. Each attachment must be smaller than 100 MB. A media or provider failure after acceptance changes the message status to send_failed.
The 202 response confirms acceptance, not delivery. Read the message to obtain its final status and any reusable reference returned by Apple.
