The WhatsApp sending queue feature is an essential tool for companies that use WhatsApp Web and the API for customer service automations, CRM, among others. This tool allows not only viewing the messages that were sent, but also checking for errors, accessing details about those errors, and managing the message queue, ensuring a more efficient and effective operation.

### Overview of the Sending Queue

The WhatsApp sending queue shows all messages that were processed by the system. These messages can come from different automations, such as:

* **Customer Service Automation**: Messages sent automatically for customer support.
* **CRM**: Communications sent to manage customer relationships.
* **Automation Flows**: Automated messages sent by flow.
* **Message Queue**: Messages scheduled to be sent at a certain time.

### Accessing the message queue

#### Message View

In the sending queue, you can view all messages that were sent, along with the status of each. Messages can have the following statuses:

* **Sent**: The message was sent successfully, whether it was read or not, and whether it was replied to by the customer.

* **Error**: There was a problem sending the message. Indicates the nature of the problem (e.g.: invalid phone number, message blocked by WhatsApp, etc.). A more specific description of the error, which can help in resolving the issue.

### Message queue management

**Deleting Messages**

If the sending queue reaches your plan limit, it is possible to delete messages to free up space. This can be done manually by selecting the messages you want to remove, or automatically by configuring rules to delete old messages or messages with an error status.

When clicking, you are asked to confirm the deletion of the queue:

#### After typing "delete", the queue will be cleared:

### WhatsApp API sending queue

With WhatsApp API the information changes, instead of the message body you receive the template ID:

And it will also not show error status because the error will only occur in the second verification of the template done by Meta, and this will appear in the Meta Business panel.

Canceling the queue is the same thing, it is possible to cancel from Sprinthub's side but the sending is so fast that it may not be possible.&#x20;
