Buttons

[safwanadnan]

Are the buttons supported on all accounts now, or just WhatsApp business accounts? Also, can the buttons be used without templates? The buttons used to be available previously as well but got deprecated so is there any idea how long they will be supported this time or is it still unstable? Is there a way to receive webhooks for button responses?

Are the buttons supported on all accounts

Tested with regular and business - works on both

can the buttons be used without templates?

Sorry, what is it? Yes, you just send the payload as in https://waha.devlike.pro/docs/how-to/send-messages/#send-buttons

is there any idea how long they will be supported

🤞
Consider implementing quick fallback to regular text messages anyway

Is there a way to receive webhooks for button responses?

Yes, for reply it'll be in body (and inside _data the button.id as well)

Mine is actually, not working:

I just sent this curl, the payload is exactly the paylod from the docs but I changed the chatId to be mine personal number, and the session to be the one I am using:

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/sendButtons \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
  "chatId": "[email protected]",
  "header": "How are you?",
  "body": "Tell us how are you please 🙏",
  "footer": "If you have any questions, please send it in the chat",
  "buttons": [
    {
      "type": "reply",
      "text": "I am good!"
    },
    {
      "type": "call",
      "text": "Call us",
      "phoneNumber": "+1234567890"
    },
    {
      "type": "copy",
      "text": "Copy code",
      "copyCode": "4321"
    },
    {
      "type": "url",
      "text": "How did you do that?",
      "url": "https://waha.devlike.pro"
    }
  ],
  "session": "xkCvZLdM9TSwxl5k36hU-clientId0"
}

And I receive this from WAHA API in my server, No Erros and status code 201. But the buttons were not sent:

And I got this in my WAHA API:

And I cut out the "HeaderImage" part because it gives me this error:
