I can't open the whatsapp api in Chromium #392

Hello,

How do I open Whatsapp Web on Chromium?

When loading, the page is blank.

Thanks.

I just tried it with the MiniBrowser demo on Windows 10 and the latest CEF binaries and it seems to work fine. I loaded https://web.whatsapp.com, selected the option to link a device in the app and then I scanned the QR code with my phone. After that I could see all my chats inside MiniBrowser.

If you need to handle videos and audio you will have to build the CEF binaries with proprietary codecs.

I didn't give you the correct information.

web.whatsapp.com works correctly, but api.whatsapp.com does not.

Whenever I try to use wa.me/ the page is blank. whats

The MiniBrowser demo shows this error when it opens https://wa.me : Failed to load URL whatsapp://chat/ with error ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME (-302).

Any other browser redirects from wa.me to api.whatsapp.com correctly and MiniBrowser can load api.whatsapp.com without problems. This means that it could be necessary to handle unknown protocols and perhaps redirections.

I forgot to add that the network tab in the DevTools may have some interesting information. Compare the DevTools in MiniBrowser and Chrome when you load that webpage.
