The issue
I am trying to setup a flow with WhatsApp Business API but am unable to complete the decryption of the key as part of the endpoint healthcheck.
I get this error: Encryption/decryption failed
in decrypt_request aes_key = private_key.decrypt(encrypted_aes_key, OAEP(mgf=MGF1(algorithm=hashes.SHA256()), algorithm=hashes.SHA256(), label=None)) ValueError: Encryption/decryption failed.
How to reproduce the issue
Below are the steps I followed, as per the docs here and here:
Set up the flows endpoint.
Generate 2048-bit RSA Key Pair.
openssl genrsa -des3 -out private.pem 2048
The key looks like this:
-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY----- AAA........ BBB.... .... -----END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
- Export the RSA Public Key to a file:
openssl rsa -in private.pem -outform PEM -pubout -out public.pem
- Set business public key.
curl -X POST \ 'https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/PHONE_NUMBER_ID/whatsapp_business_encryption' \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \ --data-urlencode 'business_public_key=-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- AAA BBB CCC -----END PUBLIC KEY-----'
- Create encryption/decryption code:

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
