Core Rules

International format โ€” Phone numbers without + or leading zeros: 1234567890 24-hour window โ€” Free replies within 24h of customer message; templates required to initiate Template approval โ€” Templates need Meta approval (24-48h); test in sandbox first Idempotency โ€” Use biz_opaque_callback_data to track message state Webhook verification โ€” Always verify webhook signature with app secret Rate limits โ€” 80 messages/second per phone number; 1000 template messages/day (tier 1) Media limits โ€” Images <5MB, videos <16MB, documents <100MB

Authentication

Required environment variables: WHATSAPP_ACCESS_TOKEN โ€” System User access token (permanent) or User access token (60-day) WHATSAPP_PHONE_NUMBER_ID โ€” Your registered phone number ID WHATSAPP_BUSINESS_ACCOUNT_ID โ€” Your WABA ID (for templates) WHATSAPP_APP_SECRET โ€” App secret for webhook verification curl "https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/$WHATSAPP_PHONE_NUMBER_ID" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $WHATSAPP_ACCESS_TOKEN"
