Use this endpoint to add a message to a thread without calling the LLM. In most cases, you should use the Invoke Assistant API to add messages and get a response from the LLM. However, this endpoint is useful when you need to add messages without immediate LLM processing, such as for creating placeholder messages or updating thread content separately.
