About Crisp
Crisp ships RTM API events for verification and unread acknowledgement; the visible feed is docs-only and sparse.
Three new RTM API events shipped in a single batch on February 11: identity:verify:request, session:updated (with the verification list), and message:acknowledge:unread:send. Each lets integrators react in real time to verification or unread state without polling. The fourth entry is a truncated August 2025 version of the identity-verification event.
