"description": "Use this endpoint to send messages directly from the API.\n\nThe create schedule endpoint allows you to schedule a Campaign, Canvas, or other message to be sent at a designated time (up to 90 days in the future) and provides you with an identifier to reference that message for updates. If you are targeting a segment, a record of your request will be stored in the Developer Console after all scheduled messages have been sent.\n\n### Request Parameters\n\n| Parameter | Required | Data Type | Description |\n| --------- | ---------| --------- | ----------- |\n| `broadcast` | Optional | Boolean | See broadcast -- defaults to false on 8/31/17, must be set to true if \"recipients\" object is omitted |\n| `external_user_ids` | Optional | Array of strings | See external user identifier |\n| `user_aliases` | Optional | Array of user alias objects | See user alias object |\n| `audience` | Optional | Connected audience object | See connected audience |\n| `segment_id` | Optional | String | See segment identifier |\n| `campaign_id`|Required|String| See campaign identifier|\n| `recipients` | Optional | Array of recipient objects | See recipients object |\n| `send_id` | Optional | String | See send identifier | \n| `override_messaging_limits` | Optional | Boolean | Ignore global rate limits for campaigns, defaults to false |\n| `recipient_subscription_state` | Optional | String | Use this to send messages to only users who have opted in ('opted_in'), only users who have subscribed or are opted in ('subscribed') or to all users, including unsubscribed users ('all'), the latter being useful for transactional email messaging.
