WhatsApp is on the roadmap but not yet available to connect. This page is a placeholder — when the WhatsApp channel ships, the connect flow, required credentials, and message format will be documented here.
What we know today
- WhatsApp will use Meta’s WhatsApp Cloud API via a WhatsApp Business account.
- Required credentials will include a Business phone number ID and an access token — both issued by Meta.
- Messages will be sent as templated notifications containing the post title, excerpt, and link.
Until the connect flow is live, the WhatsApp card won’t appear in the Channels Store. If it appears but errors when you try to connect, that’s a bug — please let us know.
In the meantime
If WhatsApp broadcast is important to you, the simplest workaround is:
- Use the Telegram channel (similar audience model, fully working today).
- Manually forward the post from one of the working channels into a WhatsApp group of your own.
