API referenceEvents

A new message in a LinkedIn conversation, usually within seconds, including the account's own (is_sender), typed on LinkedIn or sent through the API. One missed then arrives at the next inbox check; a message seen twice is still one event. message_id and chat_id match the ids of GET /api/v1/chats/{id}/messages. Sales Navigator InMail replies come as this event too, with subject, for a seat that sent an InMail through the API in the last 60 days.
