"Send message" webhook with event === "messages.upsert"

[diogodomanski]

Welcome!

• Yes, I have searched for similar issues on GitHub and found none.

What did you do?

I've created an instance and set webhooks as following:

"webhook": {
    "enabled": true,
    "url": "http://host.docker.internal:5678/webhook/whatsapp",
    "headers": {},
    "byEvents": false,
    "base64": false,
    "events": [
        "MESSAGES_UPSERT",
        "MESSAGES_UPDATE",
        "MESSAGES_DELETE",
        "SEND_MESSAGE"
    ]
}

Next, I've made some tests by sending, receiving, reading and deleting messages. All tests triggered webhook events. However, the value of event property (in webhook payload) is not what I expected (and that is in the docs).

Test	Event expected	Event triggered
Send message	send.message	❌ messages.upsert
Receive message	messages.upsert	✅ messages.upsert
Read message	messages.update	✅ messages.update
Delete message	messages.delete	✅ messages.delete

I know that I can distinguish between a received message and a sent one, by checking event and data.key.fromMe values.

But I'd like to know if it is correct to have the value "messages.upsert" in event attribute for "send message" events.

Thanks in advance
