Send approved WhatsApp template messages from your own systems. Credits are the same as in the app.

Template messages only. This product sends approved WhatsApp template\nmessages. There is no free-form / service-message endpoint, by design.

Set the collection variables baseUrl and apiKey before running.\nCreate a key in the app under Settings → API keys — it is shown once.

Every successful send is BILLED and delivers a real WhatsApp message.\nUploading a file for a header is free; run 'Upload media' before the\ndocument-header send and that send uses the uploaded file's url.\nUtility and authentication templates cost 1 credit; marketing costs 5.

A fixed key, so replaying this exact request is safe.

Send this twice. The second call carries the same Idempotency-Key and returns the FIRST result — no second message, no second debit.

One request per header shape the API accepts. Every variant is the same endpoint and the same body schema — only components differs. Billed by the template's category; the response id feeds the status request.
