#### **Headers**

<table><thead><tr><th width="165">Name</th><th width="181">Value</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Client-Code</td><td><code>customer value</code></td><td>For Service Providers only. Company registration code of the Service Provider or its customer. When using the Service Provider own value also related customers messages are returned by default - see also Filter-Service-Provider for more options.</td></tr><tr><td>Client-Country</td><td><code>customer value</code></td><td>For Service Providers only. Should match the value of Client-Code</td></tr><tr><td>Filter-Service-Provider</td><td>true / false or 1/0</td><td>Add this optional header to select service provider messages only when using Service Provider own value for Client-Code. Values: 1/true (filter is on) or 0/false (filter is off). This can be used by service providers to select only their own company messages in the queue. By default when Client-Code is the service provider itself, it returns the messages of all customers. Has no effect when Client-Code is not service provider.</td></tr><tr><td>Filter-Response-Type</td><td>CREDIT_DEBIT_NOTIFICATION, PAYMENT etc.</td><td>Add this optional header to filter specific service messages. The value can be any Message-Response-Type (e.g., ACCOUNT_STATEMENT, CREDIT_DEBIT_NOTIFICATION, PAYMENT). Using this parameter enables parallel processing of payment responses and debit-credit notifications separately. This allows immediate consumption of payment responses, even if there are thousands of pending notifications in the queue.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.lhv.com/home/connect/services/messages/get-next-message.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
