Chat SDK adds WhatsApp adapter support
Chat SDK releases a WhatsApp adapter extending its multi-platform bot framework to support messages, reactions, auto-chunking, read receipts, media downloads, and location sharing.
Chat SDK now supports WhatsApp, extending its single-codebase approach to Slack, Discord, GitHub, Teams, and Telegram with the new WhatsApp adapter. Teams can build bots that support messages, reactions, auto-chunking, and read receipts. The adapter handles multi-media downloads (e.g., images, voice messages, stickers) and supports location sharing with Google Maps URLs. Try the WhatsApp adapter today: The adapter does not support message history, editing, or deletion.
Cards render as interactive reply buttons with up to three options, and fall back to formatted text. Additionally, WhatsApp enforces a 24-hour messaging window, so bots can only respond within that period.
