Usage
The Send WhatsApp Message action element is available in automation event-triggered flows, broadcast flows, on-demand flows, and segment-triggered flows.
The WhatsApp message is sent based on the schedule configured in the Start element. If multiple Send WhatsApp Message elements are separated by Wait elements, the flow doesn’t send the WhatsApp message until the Wait conditions are met.
Set Input Values
Select the segment from the campaign record or from the flow’s Start element. You can customize the contents of the WhatsApp message from the campaign record.
