Retrieving chat message history

This command retrieves message history from the specified chat. You can get up to 100 messages, no older than 90 days. The request is synchronous, meaning the response is returned directly to the request, not to a WebHook.

To retrieve chat history, send a POST request to:

https://whatsgate.org/api/v1/get-history

The request body must contain:

{
  "WhatsappID": "YOUR_WHATSAPP_ID",
  "recipient": {
    "id": "79999999999@c.us"
  }
}

• WhatsappID - WhatsApp identifier in the system
• recipient - points to a chat (or group) whose history should be retrieved. Recipient object description
