Message status (Meta)

GET https://app.sendapp.ai/api/whatsapp-meta/message-status

Get the delivery status of a WhatsApp Meta message from its wamid (the id returned when sending). Returns the current status: sent, delivered, read or failed.

Statuses are available for 7 days after sending. You do not need to register an address of your own: the status can always be read with this call. If you prefer to receive updates in real time on your server, use the status webhooks.
