Backs the visual editor: given a message body and the part of it you selected, the ingestion engine proposes a pattern that captures it.

id
required
string

The inbox identifier — the same string that prefixes its receiving address.

Media typeapplication/json
object
source

The message body to propose a pattern against.

string
selection

The part of it you want captured.

string
offset

Where the selection starts in the source, or -1 when unknown.

integer

"source": "example",
"selection": "example",

What the engine proposes.

key

any
Examplegenerated
{}

No usable credential. UNAUTHENTICATED when none was presented, KEY_UNKNOWN, KEY_REVOKED or KEY_EXPIRED when a key was — kept distinct on purpose, because “mint a new one” and “somebody took this away from you” are different facts to whoever is reading a red pipeline.

Every failure has this shape. Branch on error.code; error.message is written for a human and is in French today.

The stable, machine-readable reason.

string
message

A sentence for whoever is reading the failure. Not part of the contract.

string
Example
{
"error": {
"code": "SCOPE_INSUFFICIENT"
}
}

SCOPE_INSUFFICIENT (the message names the scope this request wanted and the ones the key holds), KEY_CANNOT_REACH (no scope opens this route to a key at all), FORBIDDEN, or one of the stated refusals listed under x-api-key-refusals.

INBOX_NOT_FOUND. An inbox in a workspace the key does not reach answers the same way as one that does not exist — telling the two apart would let anyone map a colleague’s workspaces one request at a time.
