Use it in a flow
- Open a flow, open the node library and search for WhatsApp Business.
- Drag it onto the canvas and choose an Operation and your connection.
- Map the operation's fields from earlier steps, or click Map with Matt.
- Use Test this step to see what it returns, then save.
To start a flow from WhatsApp Business without a ready-made trigger: a Poll for changes trigger can check one of its list operations on a schedule and pass on only what is new; if WhatsApp Business can send webhooks, a Webhook trigger receives them at its own URL.
Operations
4 operations in 1 groups. Each one is a step you can add to a flow.
