# /api/v1/message

Admin-managed **fylr** messages shown in the web front end, optionally requiring per-user confirmation (`confirm_every_version`, `show_always`) and optionally scoped to a `start_time`/`end_time` window. A message is addressed to user groups via `_groups`, not to individual users. All operations require the `system.message` system right (or `system.root`); a user who holds it sees and manages every message — there is no per-user sender/recipient scoping.

Differs from easydb 5: the message kind is the `webfrontend_type` field (free-form) and the body text is `message`; easydb 5 named these `type` (with values such as `eula`) and `message_html`.
