Usage examples
curl -sSX PATCH https://zulip2.ca.rsc.tohtech.ac.jp/api/v1/scheduled_messages/2 \
-u BOT_EMAIL_ADDRESS:BOT_API_KEY \
--data-urlencode type=stream \

Parameters
scheduled_message_id integer required in path
Example: 2
The ID of the scheduled message to update.
This is different from the unique ID that the message would have
after being sent.
type string optional
Example: "stream"
The type of scheduled message to be sent. "direct"
for a direct
message and "stream"
for a stream message.
When updating the type of the scheduled message, the to
parameter
is required. And, if updating the type of the scheduled message to
"stream"
, then the topic
parameter is also required.
In Zulip 7.0 (feature level 174), "direct"
was added as the
preferred way to indicate the type of a direct message, deprecating
the original "private"
. While "private"
is supported for
scheduling direct messages, clients are encouraged to use to the
modern convention because support for "private"
may eventually
be removed.
Must be one of: "direct"
, "stream"
, "private"
.
to integer | (integer)[] optional
Example: 8
The scheduled message's tentative target audience.
For stream messages, the integer ID of the stream.
For direct messages, a list containing integer user IDs.
Required when updating the type
of the scheduled message.
content string optional
Example: "Hello"
The updated content of the scheduled message.
Clients should use the max_message_length
returned by the
POST /register
endpoint to determine
the maximum message size.
topic string optional
Example: "Castle"
The updated topic of the scheduled message.
Required when updating the type
of the scheduled message to
"stream"
. Ignored when the existing or updated type
of the
scheduled message is "direct"
(or "private"
).
Clients should use the max_topic_length
returned by the
POST /register
endpoint to determine
the maximum topic length.
scheduled_delivery_timestamp integer optional
Example: 3165826990
The UNIX timestamp for when the message will be sent,
in UTC seconds.
Required when updating a scheduled message that the server
has already tried and failed to send. This state is indicated
with "failed": true
in scheduled_messages
objects; see
response description at
GET /scheduled_messages
.
