Automatic line message

POST /v1/bots/:botId/openlines/session/auto-message

Bitrix24 method: imopenlines.bot.session.message.send. Requires imbot and imopenlines, the key owning the bot and write access.

Terminal
curl -X POST "https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1/bots/621/openlines/session/auto-message" \
  -H "X-Api-Key: $VIBE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"chatId": 2043, "type": "DEFAULT", "message": "VIBE-PROBE Hello"}'

type is required: WELCOME sends the line welcome template; DEFAULT sends a system message to the client connector. DEFAULT requires a string message, excluding empty string and "0", which Bitrix24 silently skips. This is not a normal bot message. Bitrix24 does not report whether a message was sent: a missing session or an internal validation refusal can still return true. accepted acknowledges only the REST call. This method does not need CLIENT_ID.

JSON
{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "chatId": 2043,
    "accepted": true
  }
}

Identifiers: chatId / dialogId / CHAT_ID follow the shared rules.
