Broadcast Messages Delivery (Linear)

This metric only takes into account data for broadcasts that were sent within the selected period.
- The tracking of messages delivery status is only up to 30 days. So for an example, if a message gets read only after 30 days, the delivery status will no longer be updated to Read.
- If Contacts have turned off Read Receipts on the WhatsApp app's privacy setting, messages they have read will not be reflected in the Read metric. Instead, they will be reflected in the Sent and Delivered metrics. This may cause a discrepancy between the number of Read and Delivered messages.

FAQ and Troubleshooting

How does the date range filter affect the data displayed in Broadcast Messages Delivery charts?

The examples here are applicable to both Broadcast Messages Delivery (Linear) and Broadcast Messages Delivery (Cumulative) charts.

If your selected period is the month of April:

  • The charts will filter all the broadcasts that were sent in April, and display data only from broadcasts sent in April.
  • If a broadcast is sent on 31st March but the broadcast message for this broadcast gets read on 1st April, this will not be reflected in the report because the broadcast was sent on 31st March.
  • If a broadcast is sent on 30th April, the broadcast message for this broadcast will be reflected in the report under the Sent count. However, if this broadcast message only gets read on 1st May, this broadcast message will not be reflected in the report under the Read count due to the selected period being the month of April.
