Posts under category Facebook WhatsApp Business API

I have my own Whatsapp business account. I want to have a client that can:

  1. Alert me when I get a new message
  2. Be able to send an automatic reply based on the original message I've received.

I've searched the web for ready open source python clients I can use and found only one that might be suitable - https://pypi.org/project/wabclient/ The problem - there is no documentation on how to use it, reviews etc. Are there any other open sources I can use to achieve my goal? Any sample projects that use wabclient?

I would like to implement notifications through WhatsApp API into my app. I've done lots of research but I couldn't find anything official.

Officially WhatsApp API Bussiness exists, but it is a beta version and only for companies that send massive volume of messages (1 million+). There is also Twilio, it requires a business approval and I got denied because (again) my volume requirement isn't into the millions of messages per month.

Unofficial libraries exist that potentially could get the job done. I looked into it and the one that I was contemplating seemed to be unreliable. But is this really the only way?

Since the start of pandemic I've been receiving all sorts of ads with apps that offer WhatsApp notification for orders and customer services... how are they doing it? I know they are small businesses, so there must be a way.

My app was built using JavaScript/React, any information is appreciated.

I am new in whatsapp business API integration and i successfully installed Docker and postman collection.

Referring below link : https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/installation/dev-single-instance

Now in postman collection they mentioned regarding {{ URL }}

Collection Link : https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/guides/postman

The first thing you should replace is the URL which represents the webapp endpoint. You'll see that all of the requests will reference this variable via {{URL}} so it's important you get this right.

How can i get this Valid URL ?

I tried hard but unable to find it.

Help me if anybody know this.

Thanks in advance.
