This endpoint is currently under construction. Please reach out to support if you'd like to use it.
Returns all secure messages for your organization - both messages you have sent and messages received from other practitioners.
Note that some inbound messages might not be tied to any specific patient.
For real-time inbound notifications, use the message.received webhook rather than polling this endpoint.
This is a paginated endpoint. For more information see pagination.
