|

The content must be downloaded via a link without redirects. An attempt to download content will be made as soon as the request is received, i.e. short-lived links can be made. There may be restrictions on the type and size of content, specific to each messenger. Both text and contentUri cannot be transmitted at the same time. |
| refMessageId | String | Id of the message to cite. |
| crmUserId | String | CRM user id specified with CRUD users. If specified, and if such a user already exists, we will save his id and name as when sending via iframe |
| crmMessageId | String | Message identifier on the CRM side. Needed to make the routing idempotent. |
| username | String | For Telegram only. The username of the Telegram contact, with no @ at the beginning. Can be used when sending messages via Telegram if chatId is not known |

| clearUnanswered | Boolean | Whether to reset the unanswered counter.
Specify “false” to prevent the message from resetting the counter. For example, with automation. So the CRM user will see a notification of a new incoming, even if his client has left an automatic response. If nothing is specified, the outgoing message will reset the counter. |
| templateId | String | WABA template code. |
| templateValues | String
(Array) |
Values to fill in the variables in the template. |
| buttonsObject | Object | Buttons attached to a message. Can be used to work with WABA templates and with WABA interactive messages.
Interactive message is a message with buttons, which can be sent in an active 24-hour correspondence with the client from the WABA channel. WABA template is a template that is moderated by Meta. They are used to start 24-hour correspondence. When working with WABA templates buttonsObject comes in handy only if you want to bind a payload to the buttons. You don’t need to write the text of the buttons that will be sent with the WABA template. |
| buttonsObject.buttons | Object[ ] | An array of objects with buttons. No more than 10.
If the array is larger, take the first 10 buttons. |
| buttonsObject.buttons.text | String | Needed to work with interactive messages. Button text, maximum 25 characters. |
| buttonsObject.buttons.type | String | Button type. Needed to work with interactive messages.
Now we only support text format so specify “text” type. |
| buttonsObject.id | String | Payload from interactive message buttons. |
| buttonsObject.payload | String | Payload from template message buttons. |
If it was sent, then if another request with the same crmMessageId is received, the message will not be sent, the error 400 Bad Request, { error: ‘repeatedCrmMessageId’, description: ‘You have already sent message with the same crmMessageId’ } will be returned.
Important: In order to send WABA templates in the “text” field you must pass the “template code”, which you can obtain from support. If there are variables in the template, you should replace them with the necessary values at the moment of sending. You can read more about how to add a template and examples of how to use it in the article.
Request examples
WABA template
Request to submit a WABA template with 3 buttons. Each has a payload.
fetch("https://api.wazzup24.com/v3/message", {
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Authorization": "Bearer {apiKey|sidecarApiKey}",
},
body: {
channelId: "24197d5f-06de-421f-8576-9f6e6cb67f28",
chatType: "whatsapp",
chatId: "79994621848",
templateId: "6201005a-9a6f-486f-bdd5-e6cb86c76ddb",
templateValues: ["value"]
buttonsObject: {
buttons: [
{ payload: "button_payload 1" },
{ payload: "button_payload 2" },
{ payload: "button_payload 3" }
]
}
},
});
The request for WABA templates with buttons does not require button text. They are moderated along with the main text of the template, so the buttons cannot be changed.
buttonsObject is only useful if you need to specify a payload for the buttons.
WABA interactive message
In this request we send an interactive message with 3 buttons: "Yes", "No" and "Maybe". The buttons have no payload.
fetch("https://api.wazzup24.com/v3/message", {

"Authorization": "Bearer {apiKey|sidecarApiKey}",
