WhatsApp Business products support businesses from large to small. Engage audiences, accelerate sales and drive better customer support outcomes on the platform with more than 2 billion users around the world.
Emit new event when a new message is sent or received. A Webhook subscribed to field "messages" must be set up from the App Dashboard of your Facebook Developer Account. See documentation for more information about Webhook setup.
Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Node docs to learn more.
Send a text message using a pre-defined template. Variables can be sent only as text. See the docs.
The WhatsApp Business API on Pipedream is a powerful avenue for automating interactions with customers on WhatsApp. You can send messages, set up automated responses, and manage conversations on a large scale. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create workflows that trigger from various events and connect WhatsApp Business with numerous other apps to automate tasks, notify teams, sync data, and more, all without managing infrastructure.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
whatsapp_business: {
type: "app",
app: "whatsapp_business",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://graph.facebook.com/v15.0/${this.whatsapp_business.$auth.business_account_id}/phone_numbers`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.whatsapp_business.$auth.permanent_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.
This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json
file or running npm install
.
Below is an example of installing the axios
package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios
package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:
// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Return data to use it in future steps
return steps.trigger.event
},
})
