Events

Subscribe to messenger events and receive new messages and updates via polling.

Scope: im | Base URL: https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1 | Authorization: X-Api-Key

Subscribe to events

POST /v1/chats/events/subscribe

Enables accumulation of messenger user events for the current user. Without an active subscription, events are not accumulated and are not available through GET /v1/chats/events.

You must call subscribe before you start polling events. Calling it again while a subscription is active does not cause an error.

Parameters

The endpoint takes no parameters. The request body is an empty object {}.
