Feat: Support for Whatsapp ID on Send Contact API #39

Closed vicenterusso closed 1 year ago

vicenterusso commented 1 year ago 
"phones": [
    {
        "phone": "<whatsapp-number>",
        "type": "CELL",
        "wa_id": "<whatsapp-number>"
    }
]

The code bellow should include the wa_id like above. If not present, the Contact is not recognized as whatsapp number and it displays the button "Invite to Whatsapp".

Willing to help sending PR later, But I'm not well versed in tests.

Hi @vicenterusso

Thanks for your report. I'll add support for wa_id on contact phones.

Thanks :)

Just a note:

In my country, the "wa_id" is not the same as my cell number. For example:

My cellphone format: 44 66 99999-9999 (extra number) My whatsapp id: 44 66 9999-9999

So, maybe an extra optional parameter (if null uses cell phone) for the whatsapp id could be the best option
