When making a request for message records from the Message Store, we can specify the message type such as VM or SMS. One option is called “Text”. What is the difference between “Text” and “SMS” messages?

I don't see such option here: https://developers.ringcentral.com/api-reference/Message-Store/listMessages

Basically messages are fetched based on message id, attachment id etc respective to the account and extension.
