Hello,
I am encountering an issue with the WhatsApp Business API when attempting to send a message template or query the list of templates. The API returns the following error:
{ "error": { "message": "(#135000) Generic user error", "type": "OAuthException", "code": 135000, "error_data": { "messaging_product": "whatsapp", "details": "Generic user error" }, "fbtrace_id": "Acl4jwcxw9wDcwCcNs-_4jW" } }
Relevant Information:
The template used is approved in the Business Manager. The recipient's number has been tested and is in E.164 format (e.g.: +5511999999999). The access token used has the correct permissions (whatsapp_business_messaging and whatsapp_business_management). The phone number is active and linked to the WhatsApp Business account. Sending individual messages continues to work The problem occurred without any changes, sending templates simply stopped working.
Attempts to resolve:
I checked the template parameters and they are correct. I confirmed that the access token is valid. I tested with other templates and other phone numbers, but the error persists.
Has anyone faced this issue or know how to solve it? Is there anything I can check or adjust in the template configuration, or in the WhatsApp Business account to solve this? Is there a support channel by phone or email with Meta?
