How can I make the "Typing" or "Recording Audio" status appear for the user while my message is being generated in Chat GPT to be sent via Z-API?

Create an automation to reply to WhatsApp messages using Chat GPT. However, my messages are sent directly, and I want to make them feel more human. For that, I would like the “typing” status to appear while Chat GPT is generating the response.

Welcome to the Make community!

According to How to implement typing indicator in WhatsApp when using npm twilio package - Stack Overflow, it is NOT possible because WhatsApp does not have that functionality via the API.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
