Review WhatsApp delivery status changes with your message history
Use each real-time status update to check the delivery records you keep in ClickHouse.
Trigger
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
Action
Execute ClickHouse Query
Execute a sql query in clickhouse and return the results. this is the primary action for querying data from clickhouse databases.
Why this helps
Delivery issues can be missed when status changes arrive separately from the history used for reporting.
- Review status changes alongside stored message records.
- Identify delivery patterns for your team to investigate.
- Keep status checks tied to a useful run report.

Questions about this workflow
Does this trigger poll WhatsApp for status updates?
No. WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Updates arrive through real-time webhooks.
Can it summarize delivery rates over time?
It can query historical records available in ClickHouse, but meaningful rates require suitable stored status data and a time range in the query.
