WhatsApp

Download WhatsApp media

Streams the binary for a WhatsApp attachment. This is the endpoint the url on a WhatsApp attachments[] entry points at, in both the message.received webhook and the List messages response.

This is an authenticated endpoint, not a public link. Send Authorization: Bearer <your API key> exactly as you would for any other call. Passing the URL straight to a browser, an LLM vision API, or a no-code "download file" step without the header returns 401. This is the most common integration mistake on this endpoint, and it differs from Instagram, Facebook and Telegram, whose attachments[].url is a direct CDN link that needs no header.

Fetch on receipt, not lazily. WhatsApp media lives in Meta's media store, not ours, and it is removed after a limited retention window (currently 7 days, and Meta has been dropping some inbound media sooner). Once Meta drops it the media is unrecoverable and this endpoint answers 400 permanently, so retrying will never succeed. Download and store the bytes when the webhook arrives.

Unblock users

Unblock one or more previously blocked WhatsApp users on this number. Up to 1,000 users per request; per-user failures are reported in `failed` without failing the rest of the batch.

Get CTWA conversions dataset

Returns the Meta Click-to-WhatsApp conversions dataset currently linked to the WhatsApp account, if one has been provisioned. Reads only from the stored `metadata.metaCapiDatasetId`, never hits Meta, never creates a dataset. Use this to detect whether `POST /v1/whatsapp/conversions` is configured for an account.
