    x-apievangelist-note: >-
      Not deprecated, but the documentation steers all new integrations to REST v2. v1 mints
      64-bit integer message IDs; v2 mints UUIDs, and the two id spaces cannot be resolved
      against each other through any published operation.

      `reference` is a free-text correlation label echoed back on retrieval and on DLR/MO
      callbacks. It is NOT an idempotency key - the API de-duplicates nothing.
