Keep WhatsApp delivery status changes visible
Record status changes as they arrive and review message delivery outcomes in Databox alongside your other business metrics.
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
Push Data to Dataset (V1)
Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.
Why this helps
Without a central record, it takes extra effort to understand whether sent messages reached their intended status.
- Keep status changes in a reporting dataset.
- Review delivery outcomes without searching individual conversations.
- Make status patterns easier to discuss with your team.
