# deliver

<div className="flex items-center gap-2">
  <Badge color="blue">Async</Badge>
  <Badge color="purple">Method</Badge>
</div>

> This is a method of the [**BasePlatformAdapter**](../classes/BasePlatformAdapter) class in the [**base**](../modules/base) module.

Robustly deliver *content*, inheriting all shared machinery.

Applies (all capability-gated, via :meth:`send`):

* per-platform formatting (:meth:`format_message`);
* long-message chunking (:meth:`chunk`) when *content* is text;
* typing heartbeat before the first chunk (if supported);
* retry with exponential backoff honouring `retry_after`.

Non-text (dict) content is passed straight through to :meth:`send`
without chunking/formatting.
