Parameters
Name	Description
`data`	`array` Optional. Data for populating the Message object.
`↳ name`	`string` Resource name of the message. Format: `spaces/{space}/messages/{message}` Where `{space}` is the ID of the space where the message is posted and `{message}` is a system-assigned ID for the message. For example, `spaces/AAAAAAAAAAA/messages/BBBBBBBBBBB.BBBBBBBBBBB`. If you set a custom ID when you create a message, you can use this ID to specify the message in a request by replacing `{message}` with the value from the `clientAssignedMessageId` field. For example, `spaces/AAAAAAAAAAA/messages/client-custom-name`. For details, see Name a message.
`↳ sender`	`Google\Apps\Chat\V1\User` Output only. The user who created the message. If your Chat app authenticates as a user, the output populates the user `name` and `type`.
`↳ create_time`	`Google\Protobuf\Timestamp` Optional. Immutable. For spaces created in Chat, the time at which the message was created. This field is output only, except when used in import mode spaces. For import mode spaces, set this field to the historical timestamp at which the message was created in the source in order to preserve the original creation time.
`↳ last_update_time`	`Google\Protobuf\Timestamp` Output only. The time at which the message was last edited by a user. If the message has never been edited, this field is empty.
`↳ delete_time`	`Google\Protobuf\Timestamp` Output only. The time at which the message was deleted in Google Chat. If the message is never deleted, this field is empty.
`↳ text`	`string` Plain-text body of the message. The first link to an image, video, or web page generates a preview chip. You can also @mention a Google Chat user, or everyone in the space. To learn about creating text messages, see Send a text message.
`↳ formatted_text`	`string` Output only. Contains the message `text` with markups added to communicate formatting. This field might not capture all formatting visible in the UI, but includes the following: * Markup syntax for bold, italic, strikethrough, monospace, monospace block, and bulleted list. * User mentions using the format `<users/{user}>`. * Custom hyperlinks using the format `<{url}\|{rendered_text}>` where the first string is the URL and the second is the rendered text—for example, `<http://example.com\|custom text>`. * Custom emoji using the format `:{emoji_name}:`—for example, `:smile:`. This doesn't apply to Unicode emoji, such as `U+1F600` for a grinning face emoji. For more information, see View text formatting sent in a message
`↳ cards`	`array<Google\Apps\Chat\V1\ContextualAddOnMarkup\Card>` Deprecated: Use `cards_v2` instead.

`↳ cards_v2`	`array<Google\Apps\Chat\V1\CardWithId>` An array of cards. Only Chat apps can create cards. If your Chat app authenticates as a user, the messages can't contain cards. To learn about cards and how to create them, see Send card messages. Card builder

`↳ matched_url`	`Google\Apps\Chat\V1\MatchedUrl` Output only. A URL in `spaces.messages.text` that matches a link preview pattern. For more information, see Preview links.
`↳ thread_reply`	`bool` Output only. When `true`, the message is a response in a reply thread. When `false`, the message is visible in the space's top-level conversation as either the first message of a thread or a message with no threaded replies. If the space doesn't support reply in threads, this field is always `false`.
`↳ client_assigned_message_id`	`string` Optional. A custom ID for the message. You can use field to identify a message, or to get, delete, or update a message. To set a custom ID, specify the `messageId` field when you create the message. For details, see Name a message.
