Send a message to a whatsapp user if there is no previous conversation #211

Closed morgadorodolfo closed 3 years ago

Hi, can I send a message to a whatsapp user if there is no previous conversation, i.e., if the whatsapp user did not sent me a message previously. Even when the Whatsapp user is on my contact list, if I remove the conversation I cannot send him a message untill he send me another message. Thank you, Kind regards

It can be done but it is not recommended at all because whatsapp considers this as spamming(there are lot of parameters which it considers before marking an activity as spam). and Spam filters are very strong in Whatsapp so usually if you do that your number will get banned after 15th or 16th message. Yes, there are exceptions but it's pretty much the case for what I have seen/know.

Hi again,

Sorry for coming back with the same issue :) Just for curiosity, does WAPI have the method to send the message directly or it would have to be in another way?

Thank you.

kind regards,

Rodolfo

WAPI does have that. WAPI.sendMessage() you can also use WAPI.checkNumberStatus() to check if the number is whatsapp or not.
