Create or update a message

Introduced 2.12

Use this API to create or update a message within a conversational memory for conversational search. A memory stores conversation history for the current conversation. A message represents one question/answer pair within a conversation.

Once a message is created, you’ll provide its message_id to other APIs.

The POST method creates a new message. The PUT method updates an existing message.

You can only update the additional_info field of a message.

When the Security plugin is enabled, all memories exist in a private security mode. Only the user who created a memory can interact with that memory and its messages.
