 whatsapp meta ai , documenation prompt query format?

For querying Meta AI's WhatsApp Business API documentation, the format generally involves making HTTP requests to the API endpoints. Here's a structured way to format your queries and prompts:

1. WhatsApp Business API Documentation

You can find detailed documentation at WhatsApp Business API Documentation.

2. HTTP Request Format

Most queries to the WhatsApp Business API are done via HTTP requests. Here’s a generic format for making a request:

Request URL

bash
https://graph.facebook.com/v13.0/<Phone-Number-ID>/messages

Headers

http
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>

Request Body

The request body will depend on the type of message you want to send. Below are a few examples:

{
  "messaging_product": "whatsapp",
  "to": "<RECIPIENT_PHONE_NUMBER>",
  "type": "text",
  "text": {
    "preview_url": false,
    "body": "Hello, this is a text message!"
  }
}

Template Message

json
{
  "messaging_product": "whatsapp",
  "to": "<RECIPIENT_PHONE_NUMBER>",
  "type": "template",
  "template": {
    "name": "<TEMPLATE_NAME>",
    "language": {
      "code": "en_US"
    },
    "components": [
      {
        "type": "body",
        "parameters": [
          {
            "type": "text",
            "text": "<PARAMETER_TEXT>"
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

{
  "messaging_product": "whatsapp",
  "to": "<RECIPIENT_PHONE_NUMBER>",
  "type": "image",
  "image": {

  }
}

3. Response Format

Responses from the API are typically in JSON format. Here’s an example of a response:

      "id": "wamid.HBgMNTkwOTU4OTAwMTUyFQIAEhggODZFNzg4RDAxRkI2RjA5MUIwNjgAAQFBAAE7AQE"
    }
  ]
}

4. Error Handling

In case of errors, the API will return an error code and message. Here’s an example:
