Message
This document defines the Message resource.
Message resources represent a some type of mass communication – a mass email to an email list, an SMS sent to an SMS list, etc… – that is sent or otherwise communicated to to a list of people. Messages have fields to describe them such as names, subjects, bodies, statistics about delivery and engagement, and the like. Messages contain arrays that link to queries or lists representing people who are targeted to receive the message, and link to recipient lists for showing who received the message, and similar metadata. Messages can be one of two types, email or sms, indicating how the message was delivered.
Sections
Endpoints and URL structures
OSDI does not specify specific endpoints and link structures for compliant systems to use. Rather, because OSDI is a HAL+JSON API, endpoints and structures are defined in the links section of each returned resource, starting with the API Entry Point link.
HAL’s link structure lets an API consumer move through API levels, resources, and collections by parsing and following links. While most systems will not change the value of their links often and obey RESTful design principles, the value of each link when that resource is retrieved is the only canonical value, and it can change at any time.
The link relation label for an Message resource is osdi:message for a single Message resource or osdi:messages for a collection of Message resources.
Fields
The field names for this resource, with standard names, punctuation and capitalization, and values where appropriate.
Note: As with the entire OSDI specification, the specific fields a compliant system implements will vary between each system, as will the fields each system requires when creating or updating resources, which fields are writeable, and the operations you are allowed to perform on each resource.
Common Fields
A set of common fields that appear on all resources is included first, for reference.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| identifiers | strings[] | A unique string array of identifiers in the format [system name]:[id]. See the general concepts document for more information about identifiers. |
| created_date | datetime | A read-only property representing the date and time the resource was created on the local system. |
| modified_date | datetime | A read-only property representing the date and time the resource was last modified on the local system. |
Control Headers
An “osdi:control” JSON object may contain common OSDI control headers which can be used on an OSDI POST, PUT, PATCH, Helper or other function calls to modify server behavior. Read More
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| return_response | boolean | Defaults to true, if specified as false, the operation does not need to return the resource representation in the response |
Message Fields
A list of fields specific to the Message resource.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| origin_system | string | A human readable identifier of the system where this message was created. (ex: “OSDI System”) |

| scheduled_end_date | datetime | The date and time the message is scheduled to stop sending to targets. |
| sent_start_date | datetime | The date and time the message started sending. |
| sent_end_date | datetime | The date and time the message finished sending. |

| daily_stop_hour | integer | The hour of the day messages should stop sending. (ex: SMS campaigns may only be sent during certain hours of the day) |
| statistics | Statistics | An object hash representing the engagement statistics for this message. (ex: open rate and unsubscribe rate) |
Related Objects
These JSON hashes included in the table above are broken out into their own tables for readability, rather than independent resources with their own endpoints.

| statistics.spam_reports | integer | A read-only computed property representing the total number of messages marked as spam by people receiving them. |
Links
The links associated with this resource, available in the links section of the resource. Links that are part of the OSDI spec are typically prefixed with the osdi: namespace to aid in curie matching and readability.
Note: As with the entire OSDI specification, the specific links a compliant system supplies will vary between each system. In addition, systems may choose to embed a linked resource directly in the response in addition to linking to it in the links section, using the standard _embedded syntax described in the general overview documentation.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| self | Message* | A self-referential link to the message. |
| creator | Person* | A link to a single Person resource representing the creator of the message. |

Scenario: Creating a new message (POST)
Posting to the messages collection endpoint will allow you to create a new SMS message. Optionally adding a link to a Person resource will set the creator. You can also add inline sections for setting keyword based responses for the SMS Message. The response is the new message that was created. While each implementing system will require different fields, any optional fields not included in a post operation should not be set at all by the receiving system, or should be set to default values.

Scenario: Modifying a message (PUT)
You can update a message by calling a PUT operation on that message’s endpoint. Your PUT should contain fields that you want to update. Missing fields will be ignored by the receiving system. Systems may also ignore PUT values, depending on whether fields you are trying to modify are read-only or not. You may set an attribute to nil by including the attribute using nil for value.
Note: Modifying members of an array separately is not supported. To change the contents of an array, first GET the current contents and then PUT back only those you wish to keep.

Scenario: Adding targets to a message (POST/PUT)
You can add targeted people to receive a message in the form of links to queries or lists by POST/PUTing the targets array on a message. This action will typically cause the message’s targets to be recalculated by the system, based on the targeted parameters.
Note: Modifying members of an array separately is not supported. To change the contents of an array, first GET the current contents and then PUT back only those you wish to keep.
