Messaging Statistics
On the saved connector page, you will see a statistics panel showing:
- Total Sent: Number of messages successfully sent.
- Total Fails: Number of failed send attempts.
- Sent This Month: Number of messages sent in the current month.
- Success Rate: Percentage of successful deliveries.
- Attempts: Total number of send attempts (successes + failures).
- Last Sent: Timestamp of the most recent successful send.
- Last Failed: Timestamp of the most recent failed send.
- Last Error: The latest error or warning message, if any, with timestamp.
These statistics help you monitor the health and performance of your connector.
