AI-generated

Summary

Marks a WhatsApp message as read via the WhatsApp Cloud API.

Inputs

  • phoneNumberId — The Phone Number ID used to mark the message as read and show the typing indicator. If left empty, the node will try to find it automatically from the incoming data.
  • messageId — Optionally override the message ID. Leave empty to automatically use the incoming message ID from the previous node.

Output shape

The JSON response from the WhatsApp Cloud API endpoint POST /v1/{phoneNumberId}/messages with body {messaging_product: 'whatsapp', status: 'read', message_id: I}.

Returned data contains the API result of the mark-as-read operation.

Examples

Example 1: Auto-resolve phone number and message ID from incoming data

Leave both phoneNumberId and messageId empty; the node extracts the values from the previous node's output.

Example 2: Manually specify IDs

Set phoneNumberId to the desired WABA phone number ID and messageId to the specific message ID to mark as read.
