The following record fields are available, with the corresponding lenses provided for backwards compatibility:

$sel:attributes:StartChatContact', startChatContact_attributes - A custom key-value pair using an attribute map. The attributes are standard Amazon Connect attributes. They can be accessed in flows just like any other contact attributes.

There can be up to 32,768 UTF-8 bytes across all key-value pairs per contact. Attribute keys can include only alphanumeric, dash, and underscore characters.

$sel:chatDurationInMinutes:StartChatContact', startChatContact_chatDurationInMinutes - The total duration of the newly started chat session. If not specified, the chat session duration defaults to 25 hour. The minumum configurable time is 60 minutes. The maximum configurable time is 10,080 minutes (7 days).

$sel:clientToken:StartChatContact', startChatContact_clientToken - A unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. If not provided, the Amazon Web Services SDK populates this field. For more information about idempotency, see Making retries safe with idempotent APIs.

$sel:initialMessage:StartChatContact', startChatContact_initialMessage - The initial message to be sent to the newly created chat.

$sel:supportedMessagingContentTypes:StartChatContact', startChatContact_supportedMessagingContentTypes - The supported chat message content types. Content types must always contain text/plain.

For example, all the following lists are valid because they contain text/plain: [text/plain, text/markdown, application/json], [text/markdown, text/plain], [text/plain, application/json].

StartChatContact, startChatContact_instanceId - The identifier of the Amazon Connect instance. You can find the instanceId in the ARN of the instance.

StartChatContact, startChatContact_contactFlowId - The identifier of the flow for initiating the chat. To see the ContactFlowId in the Amazon Connect console user interface, on the navigation menu go to Routing, Contact Flows. Choose the flow. On the flow page, under the name of the flow, choose __Show additional flow information__. The ContactFlowId is the last part of the ARN, shown here in bold:

arn:aws:connect:us-west-2:xxxxxxxxxxxx:instance/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/contact-flow/846ec553-a005-41c0-8341-xxxxxxxxxxxx
