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 Python#

Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.

This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.

Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Python#

def handler(pd: "pipedream"):
  # Reference data from previous steps
  print(pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["id"])
  # Return data for use in future steps
  return {"foo": {"test":True}}
