Android Question whatsapp API

[kkkpe]

Hi, I would like to integrate a system for sending messages with WhatsApp into my Saas management system. Some advice on some platforms that allow you to do this and provide API for sending mass messages at low costs.

The forumsearch is working. Just try first.

One example to use.

Send more than one WhatsApp message

How to send the same WhatsApp message to 3 or 4 different contacts registered in a SQLite archive? The following code sends only one message and forgets the others. [CODE lang="b4x" ] TxtWA="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisci elit, sed do eiusmod"...

Note that there is a Api from Whatsapp directly if you are using Whatsapp Business.
In all other cases you have to use things like the above.

I would be oriented towards GREEN API, does anyone use it?

GREEN API

As DonManfred says, please use the forum search first

[B4X] GreenApi - WhatsApp API

Green API is a platform that allows you to send and receive WhatsApp messages through a stable API. 1. It is possible to send and receive text, photos and videos without the need to purchase and monitor a phone 2. Stable WhatsApp API works without a phone and your number is safe when using...

ok.. can this be undone?

Sorry, what do you mean?

I also don't know what you mean by this. In the case of the Green Api you can try it for free. The way the API works is using a WhatsApp Web session, in other words it is as if you hired a browser with an open WhatsApp Web session that sends the messages for you

and prices changed for sending messages.
And third-party providers are adjusting their rates (keep that in mind)

note:
I will give you a tip, create a mobile application that acts as a bridge to send WhatsApp messages and use a phone that has this application to act as a message sending server.

this may give you an idea

Yes, I do - very easy to use and I use their REST API's .

I have built an IoT messaging business around their API's - works well !!!

I am working on a KibyMD app for android. The app allows the user to select a pre-typed message from the database table and paste it as a whtsapp message of the selected contact. The message is sent only when the user clicks on the send button. I want to know if I need a whatsapp api for this . The pasted message is not being sent automatically to the contact.

Yes. Get a Business-Whatsapppaccount.

There is NO Api for normal Users except the one that you are using (Userintervention needed!)

WhatsApp Business Platform

The WhatsApp Business Platform is a fast, secure, and reliable way for businesses to reach their customers all over the world.

PD: I also wrote it already in #2 of this Thread ;-)

Thanks DonManferd. My doubt is that since it is an app to be used by multiple users. What type of WhatsApp api do i need. The whatsapp buisness api is to be for the the app(i.e In the name of the person/company ) or every user needs to have a whatsapp buisness account. Please explain in detail if possible.

 

[DonManfred]

Please explain in detail if possible.

Read the link i provided. Everything is described there. I can not give any detailed information as i do not own a businesssaccount.

If you want to use whatsapp business you need to have a phonenumber registered for you business.
You can only use the api on the registered phonenumber. i.e. your company answering to questions from users (most or all of them are using regula Whatsapp).

You can NOT USE the api on ANY devices which are not your company (i e users using your app). In fact all of your users doesn´t own the phonenumer which you register for the business. So all users are using regular Whatsapp account.

Only the exclusive registered phonenumber for the business can use the business-api.

PD: That said you can not use the api as a chatsystem for anyone except you.

Yes, you can do it but it is not very simple.
Based on a @moster67 post, where he explain how to use Accessibility library for to simulate user interaction, I writed an app that receive contact number, message text (and, if you want, also an attachment) and send it through whatsapp without any user interaction.
No need business account, no need whatsapp API.
