Returns the messages in a conversation, newest first, both received and sent. To page through older messages, use starting_after. The sort order is fixed, so to render the messages in conversation order, reverse the page yourself. Messages do not expire based on age.

参数

conversation_idstring

Conversation identifier. Starts with acv_.

查询参数

directionstring

Filter to received (inbound) or sent (outbound) messages.

Possible values: outbound, inbound

limitinteger

Maximum number of items to return per page.

starting_afterstring

Cursor from the next_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately after the cursor position in the current sort order.

ending_beforestring

Cursor from the prev_cursor or refresh_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately before the cursor position in the current sort order. prev_cursor returns the preceding page. refresh_cursor anchors at the first row of that response, which on a newest-first sort is how to fetch the items that have appeared since.

响应载荷

data
array of object
必填

Page of Apple Messages for Business messages, newest first.

显示子属性
data.id
string
必填

ID of the message, assigned when it is accepted or received. Pass it as message_id to the get-message and list-events endpoints.

data.conversation_id
string
必填

The conversation this message belongs to.

data.business_account_id
string
必填

The business the message was sent from or received by.

data.from
string

Apple business identifier on outbound messages, or the customer's opaque Apple identifier on inbound messages. Omitted when that address is unavailable on a historical record.

data.to
string

Customer's opaque Apple identifier on outbound messages, or the Apple business identifier on inbound messages. Omitted when that address is unavailable on a historical record.

data.direction
string
必填

Whether a message was sent by the business or received from the customer:

  • outbound: A reply the business sent into the conversation.
  • inbound: A message the customer sent.

Possible values: outbound, inbound

data.status
string
必填

Send status:

  • accepted: Accepted and queued for delivery to Apple.
  • sent: Handed to Apple. There is no delivery or read receipt on this channel, so sent is the furthest an outbound message's status advances.
  • send_failed: Sending stopped because of a business or conversation restriction, a recipient opt-out, an Apple refusal, or exhausted attempts. An earlier attempt may have reached Apple if its response or the local record of success was lost. See last_error for why sending stopped.
  • rejected: Refused by Bird before any send attempt and never charged: the destination has no price, the wallet could not fund the send, or the content cannot be sent yet. See last_error.
  • received: Received as an inbound message.

Possible values: accepted, sent, send_failed, rejected, received

data.kind
string
必填

Derived content classification for filtering and statistics.

Possible values: text, attachment, rich_link, quick_reply, list_picker, time_picker, form, apple_pay, authenticate, imessage_app, interactive

data.source
string

Who sent this message. Absent on an inbound message, which has no source to report.

Possible values: operator, automation, api

data.content
object
必填

Native message content. Outgoing interactions contain requests; incoming interactions contain replies.

显示子属性
data.content.type
string
必填

Always text.

Value: text

data.content.body
string

Text displayed in the message. Use one U+FFFC object replacement character per attachment to control placement.

data.content.subject
string

Subject displayed above the message body.

data.content.attachments
array

Ordered attachments. Each object supplies a source URL or an encrypted Apple reference.

显示子属性
data.content.rich_link_data
object
显示子属性
data.content.rich_link_data_ref

Reusable Apple content reference. Supply the decryption key, or the signed bid and data_ref_sig returned by Apple.

显示子属性
data.content.rich_link_construct
object

Asks Apple to build the rich link preview when the message is sent, rather than through a prior POST /v1/amb/messages/construct-payload call. No caller holds a signed reference until the send itself resolves one.

显示子属性
data.content.interactive_data

A built-in interaction or custom iMessage app. Custom apps require the app metadata and both message bubbles.

显示子属性
data.content.interactive_data.session_identifier
string

Session UUID to preserve across interactions. Apple creates one when omitted.

data.content.interactive_data.data
必填

Exactly one built-in interaction. Protocol versions are managed by Bird.

显示子属性
data.content.interactive_data.data.request_identifier
string

Correlation identifier for this interaction. Bird generates one when omitted. Use a new value for each message. A reply is linked to its request only when no other sent message in the conversation uses the same identifier.

data.content.interactive_data.data.images
array of object

Images referenced by identifier.

显示子属性
data.content.interactive_data.data.quick_reply
object
必填
显示子属性
data.content.interactive_data_ref

显示子属性
data.in_reply_to_message_id
string

Original message matched through Apple’s request identifier within the same workspace, business, and conversation. Omitted when no verified match exists, including when more than one sent message in the conversation uses the reply's request identifier.

data.reply_message_id
string

Latest customer reply whose in_reply_to_message_id names this message. Omitted until a reply is matched, and in webhook payloads.

data.replied_at
string

When Apple delivered the reply in reply_message_id to Bird. This can be slightly earlier than that reply's created_at, which records when Bird processed it. Omitted until a reply is matched, and in webhook payloads.

data.locale
nullable string

Locale for this message, preserved in Apple’s format, for example en_US. Outbound messages use the request override, then the conversation locale, then the business default. Inbound messages preserve the locale in Apple’s callback. Null when unknown.

data.category
string

The category this message was sent with, for reporting only. It does not affect sending or suppression policy, or select an Apple department or purpose. Defaults to an empty string when a send names no category. Absent on an inbound message, which has no category to report.

data.metadata
object

Arbitrary JSON object for per-message context. Maximum 2 KB serialized. Top-level keys beginning with __bird are reserved. Returned in the send response, message reads and customer message webhooks.

data.tags
array of object

Structured {name, value} filter labels applied to this message. Absent on an inbound message.

显示子属性
data.cost
nullable object
必填

Recorded per-message charge before MAC pricing. Null in the initial send response, while unpriced, and for MAC-covered replies. MAC fees belong to monthly contact usage, not individual messages. Historical charges have no priced passthrough component.

显示子属性
data.last_error
nullable object

Failure detail on a message whose send failed or that Bird rejected before any send attempt. Omitted when there is no failure detail.

显示子属性
data.created_at
string
必填

The moment this message was accepted (outbound), or recorded by Bird after Apple delivered it (inbound). This is the timestamp the outbound statistics families bucket and attribute on; there is no separate accepted_at field.

data.sent_at
nullable string

When the selected sending outcome occurred. Null unless the current status is sent and the message is outbound. For older messages without a retained sending event, the stored record time is used.

data.data_ref

Reusable encrypted content reference returned by Apple after a successful send. Absent until Apple returns one.

显示子属性
data.group
string

Apple department identifier carried by this message. Omitted when absent from the message or unavailable on a historical record.

data.intent
string

Apple purpose identifier carried by this message. Omitted when absent from the message or unavailable on a historical record.

data.requested_language
nullable string
必填

The template language requested by the send, in canonical form. Null when the send named no language or used no template.

data.resolved_language
nullable string
必填

The template language whose text was rendered, in canonical form. Null when the send used no template. This can differ from requested_language when the template's fallback policy selects another language.

data.template_id
nullable string
必填

The template rendered for this message, or null for a message sent with native content.

data.template_version_id
nullable string
必填

The workspace published version or synthetic built-in version rendered at acceptance, or null for a message sent with native content. For a built-in template, template_content_hash identifies the exact catalogue source.

data.template_content_hash
nullable string
必填

The rendered language's source fingerprint, or null for a message sent with native content.

next_cursor
nullable string
必填

Cursor for the next page. Pass back as starting_after to advance forward. null when no next page exists.

prev_cursor
nullable string
必填

Cursor for the previous page. Pass back as ending_before to step backward. null when no previous page exists.

refresh_cursor
nullable string
必填

Refresh anchor, the first row of this response. Pass back as ending_before to fetch what precedes it in the current sort order. On a newest-first sort those are the items that have appeared since; on any other sort they are the items that sort earlier, so refreshing such a list means re-fetching it instead. Non-null whenever data is non-empty; null only on an empty page. Distinct from prev_cursor.
