Set the typing indicator

POST/v1/chats/{chat}/typing

Sets or clears the chat’s typing indicator.

Behavior

Live only: the customer sees it as it happens; nothing is recorded.
Not needed around your own sends: put typing_lead_ms on the send instead, which shows the indicator for exactly as long as you ask. This endpoint is for showing activity while you are still working on a reply.
No Idempotency-Key: the server neither requires nor consults one here.
