The WhatsApp Template Node allows your agent to send pre-approved message templates through WhatsApp, essential for initiating conversations or sending messages outside the 24-hour window.

​
Purpose & Functionality

Sends pre-approved WhatsApp message templates, which are required for initiating conversations or sending notifications outside the 24-hour messaging window. Can dynamically fill template parameters using variables (#{variable}). Primarily operates as a notification, it only pauses execution if the waitForResponse flag is explicitly set in its configuration.

​
Configuration

  • Name: A label for the node on the Canvas
  • Associated WhatsApp Configuration: The WhatsApp Business Account to use
  • Selected WhatsApp Template: Choose from your approved templates
  • Template Parameters: Values to fill in variable placeholders in the template
  • Target Phone Number: Recipient’s phone number (can use a variable)
  • waitForResponse: Boolean flag to control if execution should pause after sending

​
Use Cases

  • Sending notifications
  • Initiating conversations
  • Re-engaging customers after the 24-hour window
  • Sending standardized messages that require pre-approval
