ICMessageData

This class provides a concrete implementation of the ICMessageData interface to express In-App and Push channels in a generalized form and is used when receiving messages to or sending messages from the SDK. In addition to the class-specific methods listed below, reference the ICMessageData, class, for interface method details.

fromJSON

Returns an ICMessage instance from an Webex Connect instance. The Webex Connect must contain valid ICMessage data.

Syntax: static ICMessage fromJSON(imiconnect jsonObj)

Return Value: An ICMessage instance or null if the jsonObj parameter was null.

getMedia

Deprecated - Use getAttachments instead.

Returns any media files that are attached to the message.

Syntax: ICMediaFile[] getMedia()

Return Value: Returns the media files that were attached to the message or null if no media file attachments exist.

getTitle

Gets the message title, if present.

Syntax: String getTitle()

Return Value: Returns message title if present.

setAttachments

Used to set the attachments which will be sent with an outgoing message.

Syntax: setAttachments(final ICAttachment[] attachments)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
attachmentsICAttachment[]The attachments to attach to the message.

setCustomTags

This method is used to set the custom tags bundle to be sent with an outgoing RTM. This method is not applicable to Push messaging.

Syntax: void setCustomTags(Bundle tags)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
tagsBundleSpecifies the Android bundle.

getCustomTags

This method is used to return any custom tag data that was sent as part of the message.

Syntax: Bundle getCustomTags()

Returns: Returns the data that was sent as part of the message payload.

setDeliveredAt

Sets the date on which the message is considered delivered to the device.

The SDK sets the delivered status automatically when a message is received, there should be no need to call this method manually.

Syntax: void setDeliveredAt(Date date)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
dateDateThe date on which the message is considered as delivered.

setMedia

Deprecated - Use setAttachments instead.

Attaches the specified media files to the message.

Syntax: void setMedia(ICMediaFile[] files)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
filesICMediaFile[]The media file array to attach to the message

setMessage

Used to set the textual part of the message.

Syntax: void setMessage(String message)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
messageStringSpecifies the text content of the message.

setReadAt

Sets the date on which the message was considered as Read.

Syntax: void setReadAt(Date date)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
dateDateThe date on which the message was considered as read.

setStatus

Sets the status of the message.

This method has limited use as message status is generally inferred based on delivered and read at dates. i.e. a message with a read at date is considered to be in the Read status.

Syntax: void setStatus(ICMessageStatus status)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
statusICMessageStatusThe new message status

getStatus

Returns the current status of the message (None/Sent/NotSent/Delivered/Read)

Syntax: ICMessageStatusgetStatus()

Return Value: Returns the current status of the message.

getSubmittedAt

Returns the date on which the message was submitted to the Webex Connect platform.

Syntax: Date getSubmittedAt()

Return Value: Message submission date.

setThread

Sets the thread instance to which the message belongs.

A valid thread instance must be assigned to a message before it can be published.

When replying to an existing thread, obtain the thread instance from an existing incoming message or from fetchMessages.

When publishing to a new thread, instantiate a new ICThread instance and use createThread to provision the thread within the Webex Connect platform before attempting to publish.

Syntax: void setThread(ICThread thread)

Parameters:

ParameterTypeDescription
threadICThreadThe thread object to which the message should belong.

getThread

Returns an ICThread instance representing the thread to which the message belongs.

Syntax: ICThread getThread()

Return Value: The ICThread to which the message belongs.

getTransactionId

Gets the transaction id that uniquely identifies the message within the Webex Connect platform.

Syntax: String getTransactionId()

Return Value: Returns the transaction id that identifies the message.

toJSON

Returns a JSON representation of the message.

Syntax: imiconnect toJSON()

Return Value: Message data as a imiconnect

getQuickReplyData

This method is used to return ICQuickReplyData instance that was sent as part of the message.

Syntax:  ICQuickReplyData getQuickReplyData()

Return Value: ICQuickReplyData instance.
