Research direction

Review the issue's SparkPost API request, the reported 400 response with code 7001, and the sending-domain status shown in the screenshots. Check the existing developer documentation for sending-domain requirements and verification timing. Done means the documentation clearly explains the error, required request details, and expected verification status or timeframe.

Description

I am writing code to send email using Sparkpost API. My sending domain is in "Sending" status right now.

Could you please tell me that this error occurs because of sending domian's status (i.e. Sending) or anything else is causing this error?

Here is my code snippet:

Here is the response of API:
400 Bad Request. Content: {"errors":[{"message":"No sending domain specified","code":"7001"}]}.

How much time it will take to verify the sending domain? Is there any ETA?
