Python chatbot WhatsApp Library#
Python library is a library for integration with WhatsApp messenger using the API service green-api.com. You should get a registration token and an instance ID in console to use the library. For testing, we recommend using the free "Developer" plan.
API#
The documentation for the REST API can be found at the link. The library is a wrapper for the REST API, so the documentation at the link above also applies.
Authorization#
To send a message or perform other Green API methods, the WhatsApp account in the phone app must be authorized. To authorize the instance, go to console and scan the QR code using the WhatsApp app.
