When sending faxes using API, is it possible to trace the faxes through unique document id instead of fax number?

You can trace fax messages using the 'messageId'.

When you send a fax using the API, the response will contain the 'messageId'. You can also look this up in the 'message-store' or 'call-log' APIs.

Then you can use the 'messageId' to associate the message in the 'message-store' and 'call-log' endpoints. The message store entry includes information on the canonical message while the call log record includes information on a specific transmission attempt. The call log entry has a 'message' property with both 'message.id' and 'message.url' properties for cross referencing.
