message.deviceId	string	The device that sent or received this message.
message.requestId	string \| null	The `requestid` of the send that created it. Null on a received message.
message.direction	string	`out` for a message this device sent, `in` for one it received. One of out · in.
message.targetInput	string \| null	The recipient exactly as you wrote it, before normalization.

message.sentAt	string \| null	When WhatsApp accepted it — one tick on the sender's screen.

message.readAt	string \| null	When the recipient opened it — blue ticks, if they share receipts.
message.senderJid	string \| null	Who wrote a received message, in phone-number form. Null on a sent message.
message.senderLid	string \| null	The author's linked identity. Null on a sent message.
message.pushName	string \| null	The display name the author has set. Null on a sent message.

Failure modes

Every failure answers with the same envelope: { "status": false, "reason": "…" }. Match on reason, never on the status alone — the full vocabulary is on the Errors page.

Field	Type	Description
400	error	`schedule` is missing or is not a unix timestamp in seconds.
401	error	The token is missing, malformed or revoked.
403	error	An account token was used; these need the device token.
404	error	No message with that id belongs to this device. A message that is somebody else's answers the same way — the id is never confirmed to exist.
409	error	The message has moved past the state this call needs — it has already been handed to WhatsApp.
429	error	Too many requests for this token. Wait the seconds in `retryAfter`.
503	error	The queue is unavailable, so the move could not be recorded.
