WhatsApp

Conversations across every connected inbox (LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Instagram Business, Facebook Messenger), merged and sorted most recent first; account or provider narrows it. Use unread=true to triage. Each item has chat_id, its account_id and provider (pass account_id as account to get_messages, send_message and the other conversation tools), and person_id for 1-to-1 chats. Facebook: page_id lists the inbox of one of a personal account's Pages (facebook_list_pages); requests=true the message requests. Accounts that can't be read right now are listed in skipped, with what to do.

Messages in one conversation (chat_id from list_chats), most recent first. 'from' is 'me' (the account owner, or the Page in a Facebook Page's chat) or 'them'; message_id values work with react. The 3 most recent images on the page come with the result for you to see (their attachments say shown_below: true); open any other, or read a document's text (PDF, Word, Excel…), with get_attachment. Every attachment has a url the user can open or download for 24 hours. Instagram Business: without cursor, reply_window says whether a reply can go out (open, user_written_only or closed). Facebook personal chats are end-to-end encrypted: older messages show only if the user unlocked their history when connecting.

Opens a file someone sent or received in a conversation (chat_id, message_id and attachments[].attachment_id from get_messages). An image (JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, at most 3.75 MB) is shown to you, so you can see and describe it; get_messages already shows you a page's most recent images (shown_below: true): use this for the others. A document (PDF, Word .docx, Excel, TXT or CSV, at most 15 MB) comes back as its text, 50,000 characters at a time: next_offset says where to go on with offset. Scanned PDFs have no text. Videos, voice notes and PowerPoint files can't be opened: give the user the attachment's url. LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram and Facebook; Instagram Business and Facebook Pages messages give the file's link in get_messages instead.

Reply in an existing conversation (chat_id from list_chats), on any network: 1-to-1, group, or a Facebook Page's chat (answered as the Page). Plain text. Show the user the exact text (and which file) before calling this. One file can go with the text: image_url (an https link to an image), file_url (an https link to a document) or media_id (from upload_media, for an image or a document the user has on their device or attached in the chat). Documents: PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint (docx, xlsx, pptx, doc, xls, ppt), TXT or CSV, at most 15 MB; WhatsApp, Telegram, LinkedIn and Facebook Messenger take PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, TXT and CSV files; Instagram takes PDFs only; Instagram Business takes PDFs only and Facebook Pages any of them. Instagram Business allow replies within 24 hours of the person's last message (Instagram: at most 1000 characters, JPEG or PNG); up to 7 days after it, only a reply the user wrote or approved word for word, with user_written: true (never for text you wrote on your own).

Message someone you have no conversation with yet.

New conversations have low daily limits (WhatsApp 10, Telegram 10, Instagram 10, Facebook 10), and networks restrict accounts that message strangers: WhatsApp bans new accounts after 2–3 cold messages; on Instagram and Facebook, people who don't follow or aren't friends get it as a message request. Only message people who expect it. Confirm the exact recipient and final text with the user before calling this. One file can go with the text: image_url (an https link to an image), file_url (an https link to a document) or media_id (from upload_media, for an image or a document the user has on their device or attached in the chat). Documents: PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint (docx, xlsx, pptx, doc, xls, ppt), TXT or CSV, at most 15 MB; WhatsApp, Telegram, LinkedIn and Facebook Messenger take PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, TXT and CSV files; Instagram takes PDFs only; Instagram Business takes PDFs only and Facebook Pages any of them.
