WhatsApp Business Overview

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.

GitHub Overview

The GitHub API is a powerful gateway to interaction with GitHub's vast web of data and services, offering a suite of endpoints to manipulate and retrieve information on repositories, pull requests, issues, and more. Harnessing this API on Pipedream, you can orchestrate automated workflows that respond to events in real-time, manage repository data, streamline collaborative processes, and connect GitHub with other services for a more integrated development lifecycle.
