# Salesforce Chatter Documents

The document reference for a document created by the Salesforce Chatter Connector uses the following format:

    CHATTER:<authenticated_user_id>:[TYPE]:<id>

where `[TYPE]` specifies the type of document and is one of the following values:

`USER` | The document contains the details of a single user.
`GROUP` | The document contains details of a collaboration group.
`FILE` | The document represents a file retrieved from the repository.
`CONVERSATION` | The document represents a private conversation.
`MESSAGE` | The document represents a message from a private conversation.
`ITEM` | The document represents an item in the user's news feed.
`COMMENT` | The document represents a comment attached to a feed item.

Most of these document types contain fields that reference other documents. For example, the `CONVERSATION` document type does not include the message content, but includes a reference to the associated `MESSAGE` documents.
