RCS text and media types with ordering

This is an example of an RCS message that shows the use of the order parameter. Here the order of the displayed RCS type is organized by the id parameter. Each type is assigned an id, and that id is passed in the messageOrder field of the order object. This is the order then displayed on the recipient's handset.

{
  "endUser": {
    "phoneNumber": "12065551234",
    "mobileOperatorId": "77"
  },
  "variables": {
    "request": {
      "rcs": {
        "text": {
          "message": "Hello customer!",
          "id": "text1",
          "suggestions": [
            {
              "action": {
                "displayText": "Check out my website!",
                "urlAction": {
                  "url": "http://www.mysite.com"
                }
              }
            }
          ]
        },
        "media": {
          "fileUrl": "https://www.myurl.com/myfile.jpg",
          "mimeType": "image/jpeg",
          "fileSize": 12367,
          "id": "media1"
        },
        "order": {
    		"messageOrder" : ["media1", "text1"]
		}
      },
      "sms": {
        "messageContent": "Hello customer! Check out my website, http://www.mysite.com!"
      }
    }
  }
}

RCS text using customerData in a reply and in an action

This is an example of an RCS message that uses customerData in both a reply and an action. Because customerData is associated with these suggestions, when a user taps the reply to dial the phone number, customerData returns information to the sender that the particular reply was tapped; when the user taps an action for accessing a website, the customerData parameter in the action section returns information to the sender that the particular action was tapped.

{
"endUser":{
    "phoneNumber": "12065551234",
    "mobileOperatorId": "77"
  },
  "variables":{
    "request":{
      "rcs": {
        "richCard": {
          "cardOrientation": "HORIZONTAL",
          "cards": [
            {
              "title": "My Website!",
              "media": {
                "fileUrl": "https://www.myurl.com/myfile.jpg",
                "mimeType": "image/jpeg",
                "fileSize": 12367
              },
              "suggestions": [
                {
                  "action": {
                    "displayText": "Check out my website!",
                    "customerData": "UserClickOnWebsite",
                    "urlAction": {
                      "url": "http://www.mysite.com"
                    }
                  }
                },
                {
                  "reply": {
                    "displayText": "Reply now!",
                    "customerData": "{\"buttonText\":\"Reply Now!\",\"sugestionChipId\":\"EXAMPLEID-001\",\"phoneNumber\":\"12065551234\"}"
                  }
                }
              ]
            }

      },
