Connect WhatsApp Business to the Tillor inbox
Last updated on
With WhatsApp Business you receive and reply to customer messages via WhatsApp in the Tillor inbox. This is not the same as WhatsApp notifications via Twilio.
For automatic WhatsApp messages (notifications), see Twilio. The marketplace app WhatsApp Business is only for inbox conversations.
Before you start:
- You need the Manage integrations permission.
- You have a WhatsApp Business account with Meta and you sign in with an account that manages it.
Installing the integration
- Go to Settings > Integrations
- Open WhatsApp Business in the list (marker 2)
- Click Install (marker 1) and complete the Meta OAuth flow
- Choose which WhatsApp number receives inbox messages
- Save the settings
After installation, Tillor receives incoming messages automatically. Replies you also send through the WhatsApp Business app or a linked device appear in the inbox. Messages you send through Tillor are not shown twice.
What happens next?
- Incoming messages appear in the inbox automatically, linked to the customer with the same phone number.
- You send replies in Tillor. Outside the 24-hour window they go as a paid template, see Reading and replying to conversations.
