Interact

Send user messages to an active conversation and process streaming responses.

Send a Message

Interact with a conversation

post

Send a new user message to the conversation. The endpoint will perform analysis and generate an agent message in response.

If request_format is text, the request body must follow multipart/form-data with precise one form field called recorded_message that corresponds to UTF-8 encoded bytes of the text message. If request_format is voice, the entire request body must be the bytes of the voice recording in audio/wav or audio/mpeg (MP3) format. The body can be sent as a stream, and the endpoint will start processing chunks as they're received, which will reduce latency.

A UserMessageAvailableEvent will be the first event in the response, which includes the user message if it's sent as text, or the transcribed message if it's sent as voice. A series of CurrentAgentActionEvents will follow, which indicates steps in the agent's thinking process. Then the agent message is generated sequentially in pieces, with each piece being sent as a NewMessageEvent in the response. After all the pieces are sent, an InteractionCompleteEvent is sent. The response might end here, or, if the conversation automatically ends (for instance, because the user message indicates the user wants to end the session), an EndSessionEvent would be emitted, while the conversation is marked as finished and the post-conversation analysis asynchronously initiated. The connection will then terminate.

Any further action on the conversation is only allowed after the connection is terminated.

A 200 status code doesn't indicate the successful completion of this endpoint, because the status code is transmitted before the stream starts. At any point during the stream, an ErrorEvent might be sent, which indicates that an error has occurred. The connection will be immediately closed after.

This endpoint can only be called on a conversation that has started but not finished.

Permissions

This endpoint requires the following permissions:

  • User:UpdateUserInfo on the user who started the conversation.
  • Conversation:InteractWithConversation on the conversation.

This endpoint may be impacted by the following permissions:

  • CurrentAgentActionEvents are only emitted if the authenticated user has the Conversation:GetInteractionInsights permission.

The identifier of the conversation to send a message to.

Pattern: ^[a-f0-9]{24}$

Query parameters
request_formatstring · enumRequired

The format in which the user message is delivered to the server.

Possible values:
response_formatstring · enumRequired

The format of the response that will be sent to the user.

Possible values:
current_agent_action_typestringOptional

A regex for filtering the type of the current agent action to return. By default, all are returned. If you don't want to receive any events, set this to a regex that matches nothing, for instance ^$.

Default: ^.*$
request_audio_configany ofOptional

Configuration for the user message audio. This is only required if request_format is set to voice.

The content type of the request body, which must be multipart/form-data followed by a boundary.

Pattern: ^multipart\/form-data; boundary=.+$

Responses
200

Succeeded. The response will be a stream of events in JSON format separated by newlines. The server will transmit an event as soon as one is available, so the client should respond to the events as soon as one arrives, and keep listening until the server closes the connection.

Best Practices

Dynamic Behavior → Metric Evaluation

For how to react to current-agent-action events (dynamic behavior triggered) and evaluate metrics, see:

  • Conversations: Events → System Integration Flow (conversations-events.md#system-integration-flow)

That page includes a sequence diagram and API examples for metric/evaluate.

Finish the Conversation

See Lifecycle & Finish to manually end a conversation and handle dangling sessions.
