This section describes messageData object incoming webhook format for incoming image, video, audio or document message. For a description of the general format of incoming webhooks, refer to Incoming messages section.

To get incoming webhooks of this type, two conditions must be true:

typeWebhook = incomingMessageReceived

messageData.typeMessage = imageMessage || videoMessage || documentMessage || audioMessage

messageData object parameters

Parameter Type Description
typeMessage string Received message type. For messages of this type, the field takes the value: imageMessage, videoMessage, documentMessage, audioMessage
fileMessageData object Received file data object
quotedMessage object Quoted message data object. Present only if the message itself is a quote

fileMessageData object parameters

Parameter Type Description
