x-apievangelist-provider: optus

x-lifecycle-status: superseded

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.
