SendVoiceStatus#

Beta version

The functionality is in beta mode. Features are subject to change and may also work unstably. There may be additional charges for functionality in the future.

The method is aimed for sending a voice status. The status will be added to the send queue. The status will be kept for 24 hours in the queue until account will be authorized.
The rate at which statuses are sent from the queue is managed by Message sending delay parameter.

Important

In order for the recipient to see the sender’s statuses, both parties must save the numbers of the interlocutors to the contact list
