Mark Message as Read

Messages

POST/api/messages/read

Marks a specific received WhatsApp message as read (blue ticks).

Mark Message as Read

This endpoint allows you to programmatically mark a message as read, which will trigger the "blue ticks" on the sender's device.

To mark a message as read, you must pass the exact key object associated with the message. You typically receive this key object in incoming message webhooks (e.g., messages.received).

The key object must contain three properties: id, remoteJid, and fromMe.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
key	object	Yes	The exact message key object representing the message you want to mark as read.
key.id	string	Yes	The unique message ID (e.g., 3EB06A5E244031B4A5D1).
key.remoteJid	string	Yes	The JID of the chat where the message was sent (e.g., [email protected]).
key.fromMe	boolean	Yes	Indicates if the message was sent by you (`true`) or received (`false`). Usually `false` when marking incoming messages as read.
