# is_typing

POST 

A **human** started or stopped typing. This is distinct from `message.generating`, which is the AI, and you may want to render them differently.

`by.role` says who: an operator typing is worth showing to the end customer, a client typing is worth showing to the operator.

**A stopped event is not guaranteed.** A connection can drop mid-typing, so expire the indicator yourself after a few seconds rather than waiting for `is_typing: false`.
