InformRequest: type: object required: - transaction_id - payloads properties: alert_id: type: string description: This field uniquely identifies the Alert to be sent to the user. For the staging endpoint, use the test alert id and for the live endpoint, use the alert id.

This information should be passed in the request to facilitate the mapping of the channel events back to the user profile to which this user_id is associated in MoEngage. transaction_id: type: string description: | This is the unique identifier denoting the transaction for which the Alert is being sent to the user. This information is maintained by the brand and is passed in the request. The maximum length allowed for this field is 50 characters. The Inform API supports idempotency using this parameter. If a request contains a `transaction_id` and is successful and another request with the same `transaction_id` is received within 5 minutes of the successful request, the new request would be deemed a duplicate one. payloads: type: object description: The payload contains the following channel-level information for all the configured channels. properties: SMS: $ref: '#/components/schemas/PayloadChannel' EMAIL: $ref: '#/components/schemas/PayloadChannel' PUSH: $ref: '#/components/schemas/PayloadChannel' ChannelStatus: type: object properties: message: type: string err_code: type: string status_code: type: integer InformSuccessResponse: type: object properties: message: type: string example: "Successfully Received" request_id: type: string SMS: $ref: '#/components/schemas/ChannelStatus' EMAIL: $ref: '#/components/schemas/ChannelStatus' PUSH: $ref: '#/components/schemas/ChannelStatus' # FIX: Removed hardcoded examples from here so the specific response examples take precedence InformErrorResponse: type: object properties: message: type: string err_code: type: string status_code: type: integer
