Bot request

For a WhatsApp bot, we send every message of the user to your server and your server replies with the message to send back.

We call your server. Your server must be reachable from the internet.

We send a JSON body to your server, and your server replies with a JSON body.

What we send

Parameter	Required	Description
body	YES	The text of the request.
sessionid	YES	The session id.
msisdn	YES	The phone number with the country code, without the plus sign.
key	YES	A security key known by our server and your server.

Example

  "body": "text of the request",
  "sessionid": "session id",
  "msisdn": "phone_number_with_country_code_without_plus",
  "key": "security_key_known_by_our_server_and_your_server"
}

Good to know

• This works like a bot: every request we send to your server gets a reply from your server.
• Reply with type 1 (or "continue") to continue the session, or type 2 (or "end") to end it.
• Your server must be reachable from the internet, and it should check the key before it replies.
