Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow add the WhatsApp sender to Amcards?
No. The available Amcards action retrieves contacts; it does not create or update them.
Can it look up a sender by phone number?
The listed Get Contacts action supports limit, skip, and filters such as name and email. Phone number filtering is not specified, so provide any needed matching details in your instruction or review returned contacts.

Message Status Updated
Triggers when a WhatsApp message status changes. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates are ONLY delivered via webhooks in real-time. This trigger cannot directly poll the WhatsApp API for status updates. This trigger will return empty results as WhatsApp does not support this operation. To track message status updates, you must: 1. Set up a webhook endpoint to receive status notifications from WhatsApp 2. Store the webhook data in your own database 3. Use a different mechanism to query your stored webhook data For more information, see: - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/webhooks
