An application can be configured to receive notifications of these event types: cqm.ExConversationChangeNotification, ms.MessagingEventNotification.ChatStateEvent, ms.MessagingEventNotification.AccpetStatusEvent, ms.MessagingEventNotification.RichContentEvent and ms.MessagingEventNotification.ContentEvent.

The state change of a conversation yields an ExConversationChangeNotification. It always carries the complete state of the corresponding conversation. For example, when the conversation was closed the notification contains the close reason, all participants and dialogues. A ChatStateEvent event is sent when a participant is interacting with a conversation. For example, when an agent writes a message, an event with chat state COMPOSING is created. An AcceptStatusEvent details about the delivery of a message. For example, if an agent accepted a message but did not read it yet, an event with status ACCEPT is created. A RichContentEvent contains structured JSON data. For more details, have look here. And a ContentEvent can be a plain text message, a hosted file, an external file, a secure form invitation and a secure form submission. For example, a consumer message is an event with content type text/plain and a textual message. On the other hand, an event of with content type hosted/file has a base64 encoded preview for images, a caption, a file type and a relative path where the file can be downloaded.

Example and schemas

Each event is sent within a notification umbrella. For example, a plain text message may look as follows:

{
  "kind": "notification",
  "body": {
    "changes": [
      {
        "sequence": 39,
        "originatorId": "adba3c0a-c1f5-4ca1-8062-07acde2b5eaf",
        "originatorMetadata": {
          "id": "adba3c0a-c1f5-4ca1-8062-07acde2b5eaf",
          "role": "CONSUMER"
        },
        "serverTimestamp": 1641916856713,
        "event": {
          "type": "ContentEvent",
          "message": "sender: Consumer message: 21\n can I get an unlimited data plan\n[16:00:56] timestamp:1641916856685",
          "contentType": "text/plain"
        },
        "conversationId": "4fe52a76-7316-45fe-acf3-482cfb621d9c",
        "dialogId": "4fe52a76-7316-45fe-acf3-482cfb621d9c",
        "messageAudience": "ALL"
      }
    ]
  },
  "type": "ms.MessagingEventNotification"
}

All notifications have a property kind with value notification. The type can either be ms.MessagingEventNotification or cqm.ExConversationChangeNotification. The body contains all the events of this notification within the changes array. Each event has a sequence id. This id is steadily incremented within a conversation between any two following events. The event details which participant created the message using the originatorId. In the corresponding originatorMetdata we get the information, that this participant has the role of a consumer. The serverTimestamp is the point in time when the event was created on the server side. The event object contains the actual event type, message and content type of the message. A conversation can have multiple dialogues. This is why there is a conversationId and a dialogId.

For example, a post conversation survey is conducted in a separate survey dialogue. messageAudience indicates who should see this message. For messages between agents and managers only, messageAudience will be set to AGENTS_AND_MANAGERS. If the message should also be displayed to customers, messageAudienceis set to ALL.
