WAABOT-SDK Documentation

Introduction

The WAABOT-SDK is a powerful tool that allows you to integrate with the WAABOT platform and interact with WhatsApp. This documentation provides a comprehensive guide on how to create credentials, create a session, initialize the WhatsApp client, configure the WhatsApp instance, and send various types of messages.

Create Credentials

To get started with the SDK, follow these steps to create your credentials:

1. Go to waabot.com using your preferred web browser and create an account.
2. Use the credentials obtained during the account creation process to create a session.

Creating a Session

To create a session for API access, follow these steps:

Endpoint: https://api.waabot.com/api/v1/sessions

{
    "email": "your-account-email",
    "password": "your-account-password"
}

Make a POST request to the provided endpoint with the JSON payload, replacing "your-account-email" and "your-account-password" with your actual account credentials. Save the session details, including the accessToken and refreshToken from the response, to a secure location or a .env file.

Initializing the WhatsApp Client

To initialize the WhatsApp client and start interacting with the API, follow these steps:

const { Waabot } = require("wasms-sdk");
const waabot = new Waabot(config.accessToken, config.refreshToken);
const chatId = "15417543010";
const chat = {
    chatId,
    fullname: "Chat Name",
    displayName: "Display Name",
    organization: "Organization",
    phoneNumber: chatId
};
const message = "This is the message to be sent!";

1. Import the Waabot class from the SDK.
2. Create a new instance of Waabot by passing the accessToken and refreshToken obtained from the session creation step.
3. Define a chat object with the necessary details, such as chatId, fullname, displayName, organization, and phoneNumber.
4. Set the message variable with the desired content of the message to be sent.

Creating a WhatsApp Instance

To create a WhatsApp instance, use the following code:

const response = await waabot.whatsapp.createNew("preferedName");

The response will contain the settings and details of the newly created instance.

Configuring the WhatsApp Instance

To configure the Waabot instance, use the following code:

waabot.setConfig({ session_id: "464c3391-dee7-4206-ad13-d75ffb7498a0", access_token: "0b375583-b9c7-4a86-b95c-7e5064326778" });

Replace the session_id and access_token with the appropriate values you want to use for the rest of the requests.

Sending Text Messages

To send a text message, use the following code:

await waabot.whatsapp.sendTextMessages({ chatId, message });

Sending a List Message

To send a list message, use the following code:

await waabot.whatsapp.sendListMessage({
    chatId,
    msgdata: {
        buttonText: "Button Text",
        text: "Middle Text",
        title: "Head Title",
        description: "Footer Description",
        sections: [
            {
                title: "title",
                rows: [
                    {
                        title: "Title Option 1",
                        description: "Option Description",
                        rowId: "string"
                    }
                ]
            }


        ],
        "listType": 0
    }
});

Sending a Contact

To send a contact, use the following code:

await waabot.whatsapp.sendContact({
    chatId,
    vcard: {
        fullName: chat.fullname,
        displayName: chat.displayName,
        organization: chat.organization,
        phoneNumber: chat.phoneNumber,
    }
});

ChatBot Interaction

To interact with the ChatBot functionality of the WAABOT-SDK, use the intent property from the instantiated waabot class. Here are some examples of available methods:

Adding a New Keyword for Auto Replies

To add a new keyword and its corresponding auto reply, use the following code:

const intent = waabot.intent;

const createdAutoReply = intent.add({
    title: "test auto reply title",
    keyword: "this keyword",
    reply: "Response",
    action: {}
});

Finding and Deleting Auto Replies

To find and delete an auto reply by its ID, use the following code:

// Find one auto reply
const foundAutoReply = await waabot.intent.getOne(createdAutoReply._id);

// Delete an auto reply
await waabot.intent.deleteOne(createdAutoReply._id);

Settings Interaction

The WAABOT-SDK provides methods to interact with various settings. Here are some examples:

Setting Default Replies

To set the default reply message, use the following code:

const response = await waabot.settings.setDefaultReply({ default_msg: "{Hi|Hello} [name] I can't find a reply for your message." });

Turning Off Group Replies

To turn off group auto replies, use the following code:

const response = await waabot.settings.turnOffGroupAutoreplies();

Turning On ChatBot

To turn on the ChatBot functionality, use the following code:

const response = await waabot.settings.turnOnChatbot();

Turning On Group Replies

To turn on group replies, use the following code:

const response = await waabot.settings.turnOnGroupReplies();

To Listen to Message events

To listen to message events, use the following code.

const response = await waabot.settings.setWebhookUrl("https://webhook.site/ca0fa48b-aa9f-4614-8e11-fd916b4a8fad");
