why is it returning error, is there and update ?

{ "success": false, "error": { "name": "Error", "message": "Evaluation failed: TypeError: _0x8e9447_0x3ab137(...) is not a function\n at eval (eval at (:1:10), :1:86675)\n at Array.map ()\n at eval (eval at (:1:10), :1:86557)" } }

[smashah]

Can't tell why you're getting that error unless you share code and context

[idham]

sorry for missing the context

a day before I was testing https://github.com/open-wa/wa-automate-nodejs/issues/2394#issuecomment-1128937794 using Postman for Baileys endpoint .. and it works, in the morning all the payload are returning error

and then I was trying the sendButtons endpoint using last known works example { "args": { "to": "62811229454@c.us", "body": { "caption": "Paskal Roadshow Jakarta", "lat": -6.2, "lng": 106.8 }, "buttons": [ {"id":"1","text":"Registrasi"}, {"id":"2","text":"FAQ"}, {"id":"1","text":"Term of Service"} ], "title": "Welcome Message", "footer": "Paskal Indonesia" } }

and give return error as {"success":false,"error":{"name":"Error","message":"Evaluation failed: TypeError: _0x21a700_0x581b93(...) is not a function\n at eval (eval at (:1:10), :1:107964)\n at Array.map ()\n at eval (eval at (:1:10), :1:107849)"}}

I just used the npx easy API and didn't change anything

@idham please try again and see https://github.com/open-wa/wa-automate-nodejs/discussions/2669 for how to use advanced buttons

[idham]

thx @smashah for the update, I didn't change anything and it works now

[dafner]

I'm new to using this library and I'm testing how button submission works for an application I'm developing.

With the code used for the test it has been impossible for me to send the buttons.

Is there any problem or limitation that prevents the correct operation of sending buttons?

I would appreciate any kind of help to be able to send buttons with the sendButtons function

Thank you

const wa = require('@open-wa/wa-automate');

wa.create({ sessionId: "COVID_HELPER", multiDevice: true, //required to enable multiDevice support authTimeout: 60, //wait only 60 seconds to get a connection with the host account device blockCrashLogs: true, disableSpins: true, headless: true, hostNotificationLang: 'PT_BR', logConsole: true, popup: true, qrTimeout: 0, //0 means it will wait forever for you to scan the qr code }).then(client => start(client));

function start(client) { client.onMessage(async message => { console.log(message);

if (message.body === 'Hi') {
  await client.sendText(message.from, '👋 Hello!');
}

if (message.body === 'Buttons') {
    await client.sendButtons(message.from, "Body", [
        {
            id: "1",
            "text": "Click"
        },
        {
            id: "1",
            "text": "Call"
        },
        {
            id: "1",
            "text": "Open Link"
        }
    ], "title", "footer");
}

}); }

@dafner buttons on MD requires a license 👍

[dafner]

Thanks for your prompt answer!

I have a cuestion, I probed other libraries from github and it's imposible to send buttons due a limitation of WA Business MultiDevice

If I purchase a license, you can assure me that I could send buttons and List without problems?

Wich kind of licence I must be purchase ? A Restricted License Key or insiders Programs?

I must purchase one licence for every number that I used in my development?

Thanks

@dafner Insiders gives you access to buttons, Restricted will allow you to start conversations with non-contacts.

I just tested - list buttons are working with MD business accounts.

Yes 1 licenses is linked to just 1 host account. If you need more than 5 please email me: shah@openwa.dev

[smashah]

Buttons will not be GA for the foreseeable future. It looks like they will be restricting usage of buttons to verified business accounts only anyways soon.
