Time needed: 8 minutes
Before you start
Make sure:
- You are logged in to Wabot.
- You have REST API permission.
Most shop owners do not need this page. Use it only when a developer asked for a sample. Keep tokens on a server. Do not paste them in chat or a public file.
1. Open REST API
On the left menu, click REST API.
2. Select an account
Select a connected WhatsApp account.
The samples on the page use that account.
3. Open one endpoint
In the left panel, pick a category such as messaging or instance.
Open one endpoint.
Read the parameters and the sample.
Copy the sample only if your developer needs it.
Make sure it worked
This tutorial worked when:
- REST API shows the selected account.
- You can open one endpoint and see a sample.
- You did not put a token in a browser app or a public page.
If it didn’t work
Access Restricted
Ask the owner for REST API permission.
You wanted an app login for an assistant
Open AI Apps (OAuth). That is a different page from this console.
You wanted WordPress order WhatsApp
Use Notifications (WordPress plugin), not REST API.
Next
The console is open. Next, update your own profile in Settings.
