Sales IQ chat start REST Api

Sales IQ chat start REST Api

Hello,
I am trying to handle the conversations between the operator in salesIQ and visitor in my chatbot.

So for that, I am using Sales IQ V2 REST Apis, So from the API collection, I figured it out of using conversations Visitor Api to send visitor messages to the operator, and using a webhook I can get operator messages.

But the problem I am facing is, I am not able to find the chat initiate(start) REST API to initiate a chat between visitor and operator on the visitor's behalf.

I came across .chat.start() API in javascript APIs which helps to initiate a chat automatically on the visitor's behalf.
So similarly I would need a REST API to initiate a chat.

I have gone through the docs but couldn't find it. So pls help to find the API for the same.

Thanks In Advance
