+This section describes the detailed format of each logical replication message.
+These messages are returned either by the replication slot SQL interface or are
+sent by a walsender. In case of a walsender they are encapsulated inside the replication
+protocol WAL messages as described in <a class="xref" href="protocol-replication.html" title="52.4. Streaming Replication Protocol">Section 52.4</a>
+and generally obey same message flow as physical replication.
