WhatsApp API: Webhook & API Message Check Status
In a WhatsApp messaging API system, speed and accuracy of message status updates are crucial, especially for applications that rely on real-time monitoring. To address this need, we now provide Webhook support and a Message Status Check API, giving you more flexibility to track the lifecycle of a message.
1. Webhook for Message Status (Real-time Updates)
With Webhooks, your system can automatically receive notifications whenever a message status changes.
Webhook notifications are only triggered for asynchronous messages — identified by the parameter is_async=true when sending a message.
How to Add Your Webhook URL
- Go to dashboard console Sidobe
-
Select menu Developer Tools.
-
Select menu Settings.
-
Click button config Webhook WhatsApp.
-
Set your URL Webhook.

2. Message Status Check API (Manual Query)
In addition to real-time Webhooks, you can also manually query message statuses using the Message Status Check API.

With the addition of Webhooks and the Message Status Check API, you now have two flexible ways to track the status of your WhatsApp messages:
-
Use Webhooks for real-time updates, especially for asynchronous messages (is_async=true).
-
Use the Status Check API for manual queries, verification, or reporting.
By combining both, your system stays accurate, efficient, and responsive when handling WhatsApp message statuses.
