Hello there, can you please elaborate?

ydakuka commented 1 year ago

@eliottvincent it must be implemented on your side.

eliottvincent commented 1 year ago

I still don't understand :)

ydakuka commented 1 year ago

@eliottvincent GET /v1/website/{website_id}/conversation/{session_id} request contains a lot of messages which I can get through GET /v1/website/{website_id}/conversation/{session_id}/messages request (with page_size = 20). I need to know how many messages exist?

eliottvincent commented 1 year ago

You can't know in advance the number of messages. When calling /messages:

if you receive a 206 HTTP code, it means there are more messages (so you need to proceed to another /messages request)
if you receive a 200 HTTP code, there are no more messages

You can see examples in our API ref: https://docs.crisp.chat/references/rest-api/v1/#get-messages-in-conversation

You can't know in advance the number of messages. When calling /messages:

Yes, you're right, but I want to know the number of messages when calling GET /v1/website/{website_id}/conversation/{session_id} using new useful field (e.g. total_messages).

That is simply not possible and we have not planned to implement that, for now.
