Messaging

Taxi & Private Hire › Products › Communication › Messaging

Generally available

In-app messaging between operators, drivers and vehicles, and from the system. Persistent messages (STANDARD/URGENT, optionally acknowledgement-required) are DB-backed with a Redis-cached unread badge; ephemeral messages live only in the cache with a TTL. Vehicle messages are cleared by the next driver to pair the vehicle.

Fields

Field	Type	Description
clientId	bigint	Tenant scope. Every tenant-aware entity carries this; `ClientFilter` enforces row-level isolation on read; the multi-tenancy routing layer (`/client/{clientId}`) sets it at create time. Surfaced only under `admin` / `tripLog` groups — never to end users.
internalKey	string	Optional client-supplied external reference / idempotency key. When present, lets external systems correlate platform-side records back to their own source-of-truth ids. Not persisted to a column — populated by the request handler when the caller sets it.
__objectType	string	Discriminator string (entity class short-name) emitted alongside the id in serialized output. Resolved at read time by `getObjectType()`; lets the FE dispatch entity-specific rendering without inspecting the URL.
id	bigint	Snowflake-style primary key (unsigned BIGINT). Generated by `IdFactory` at create time; surfaced to the FE / API as a `G`-prefixed string and stripped back to plain bigint server-side before Doctrine lookup.
createdDate	integer	Unix timestamp the row was first persisted. Set in the entity's PrePersist hook; never rewritten on subsequent updates.
updatedDate	integer	Unix timestamp the row was last touched. Bumped on every commit that hits the Doctrine UoW for this entity; drives FE invalidation + the listing change cursor.
passiveUpdatedDate	int	Read-through alias for `updatedDate` exposed under different serializer groups. Lets the FE distinguish "real edit" from "background touch" projections without changing the underlying column.
listingUpdatedDate	int	Listing-projection timestamp surfaced only under the `listMode` group. Driven by `TripCache` and other listing-shape refreshers separately from `updatedDate` so a listing rebuild doesn't trigger detail-page invalidation.
