# Message Sent Webhook

> Webhook event fired when a creator sends an outbound message to a fan.

<Warning>
  `message.sent` is deprecated. Use [`creator.message.sent`](/creator/messages)
  instead. This event continues to fire during the migration window; new
  integrations should use the `creator.*` event.
</Warning>

## When this fires

Triggered (`message.sent`) on every **outbound** creator → fan message, whatever
its source: a message the creator types in the Fanvue UI, one an agency manager
sends on their behalf, an automated/scheduled message, or an AI-generated reply
or voice/image message.

This is the outbound counterpart to [`message.received`](/webhooks/message-received).
Together they let you keep a full, real-time mirror of a conversation without
polling the chat tail.

<Note>
  `message.sent` requires the `read:chat` scope. Consent is checked against the
  **creator who owns the conversation** (the sending side), so the event is
  delivered to apps the creator — or their agency manager — has authorized.
</Note>

## Payload

* `messageUuid`: Unique identifier for the message
* `chatUuid`: UUID of the conversation. The conversation is addressed by the counterpart (fan) user UUID across the API, so this is the fan's user UUID.
* `creatorUuid`: UUID of the creator who owns the conversation
* `sentByUserId`: UUID of the actual writer — the creator, the agency manager who sent on their behalf, or the creator's automation/AI acting as them. Equals `creatorUuid` for self-sends.
* `sentAt`: ISO 8601 time the message was sent
* `type`: The message type. One of the platform message-type values, e.g. `SINGLE_RECIPIENT` (a normal direct message), `BROADCAST` (mass message), `TIP`, `LOCKED_MESSAGE_UNLOCKED`, `VOICE_CALL`, or one of the `AUTOMATED_*` / `CHAT_TEXT_*` automation types.
