Overview of WhatsApp Business#

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.

Connect WhatsApp Business#

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}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

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:

Connect Node#

// 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
  },
})
