Did the webhook body change for a first message?

I think the webhook body has changed when a user sends a message,

For the first message a user sends, I see the below. The body used to have the user’s message, but now it’s null. Also it’s a new part_type `language_detection_details`

Anyone else notice this?
 

"conversation_parts": {        "type": "conversation_part.list",        "conversation_parts": [          {            "type": "conversation_part",            "id": "2322",            "part_type": "language_detection_details",            "body": null,            "created_at": 1718102859,            "updated_at": 1718102859,            "notified_at": 1718102859,            "assigned_to": null,            "author": {              "id": "7189586",              "type": "bot",              "name": "Fin AI",              "email": "operator+wed4314z@intercom.io"            },            "attachments": [],            "external_id": null,            "redacted": false          }        ],        "total_count": 1      }    }  }

Hi @AlexR -- Cam from the Intercom Support Engineering team here.

Looks like you’ve had a chat with my teammate Jacob on this whos passed along the following details which I’ll echo here for completeness…

...looking at the details in your message it looks like the conversation_part that you're referencing is language_detection_details

There wouldn't be a body associated with that. The body is for messages that are sent by the admin or the end user.

 

The very first part of a conversation is not actually stored in the conversation_parts, rather it's stored in the source attribute.
