Uploads and publishes an image or video status broadcast through the connected WUTS WhatsApp session. Provide the media either inline as base64 in the data field or as a downloadable url; when media_type is omitted it is inferred from mime_type.

Replies to a contact's status with a GIF. WhatsApp has no GIF wire type, so the file must be MP4. The reply is delivered to the author's 1:1 chat and quotes the status.
