In short

Business-initiated WhatsApp messages need a template Meta has approved. In Settings › Templates press New template, choose Marketing, Utility or Authentication, write it with named variables like {{first_name}} and a sample for each, and press Submit for approval. Sync from Meta pulls templates made elsewhere.

Steps

  1. Open Settings › Templates and press New template.
  2. Choose the category — Marketing, Utility or Authentication. A message about an order or booking the customer started is Utility; anything promotional is Marketing.
  3. Optional header: none, Text, Image, Video or Document (sample file up to 16 MB).
  4. Write the body with named variables in double braces — {{first_name}}, {{order_id}} (lowercase letters, digits and underscores) — and give a sample for each.
  5. Press Submit for approval. Meta usually answers within minutes to a day.
