The delivery lifecycle of a message you sent: sent, delivered, read, or failed. status.errors[] on a failure is Meta's array untouched; see Errors. One Meta POST that contains several statuses becomes one event per status, and each event carries the same raw. Order is not guaranteed; order by status.timestamp.

Event type: message.status. Fixture payloads are the WhaBuzz Demo tenant's real ids with a fictional customer number; id, tenant_id and created_at in envelopes are illustrative.
