You can use either POST or GET to retrieve messages for an HTTP stream consumer.

​
Request parameters

id
string
required

ID of the HTTP consumer.

batch_size
integer

Number of messages to try to fetch from the consumer. Defaults to 1.

The count of returned messages may be less than the requested batch size if there are fewer messages available for the consumer.

wait_for
integer

Amount of time to wait for messages to become available in the consumer, in milliseconds. Defaults to 0.

When wait_for is greater than 0, the request will block until either batch_size messages are available or wait_for milliseconds have passed.

Therefore, you can use wait_for to implement long polling.

​
Response fields

The response is an object with a data property that contains a list of messages.

For record consumers:

ack_token
string

You’ll use the ack_token in follow-up requests to either ack or nack this specific message.

record
Record

A record.

For event consumers:

ack_token
string

You’ll use the ack_token in follow-up requests to either ack or nack this specific message.

event
Event

An event.
