MCP

Give your agent WATI tools

Every WATI action is exposed as an MCP tool on Pipedream's remote server. Point a client at it with your end user's ID and Connect resolves that user's WATI account for each tool call — you store no tokens.

// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": "{project_id}",
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "wati",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// e.g. run Add Contact:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "wati-add-contact",
  arguments: {
    whatsappNumber: "WhatsApp Number",
    name: "Name",
  },
})

API PROXY

Call the WATI API directly

For an endpoint with no pre-built tool, the Connect proxy forwards your request to the WATI API with the connected user's credentials attached. You store no tokens and write no refresh logic.

const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
  url: "https://api.example.com/v1/me",
})

// Any allowed WATI endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.

SDK

Run WATI actions from your backend

Connect a user's WATI account once, then run Add Contact on their behalf from your own code — TypeScript, Python, or plain HTTP.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "wati-add-contact",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    wati: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    whatsappNumber: "WhatsApp Number",
    name: "Name",
  },
})

MULTI-APP

Use WATI with other popular apps

Most products don't stop at one integration. Pair WATI with the other apps your users rely on, and ship use cases that span both.
