Function Details

The WhatsApp feature on the SMSEagle device enables you to send and receive WhatsApp messages via the web GUI or API, or through automatic message conversion. Once you have connected a WhatsApp account in the ‘Settings’ menu, you can send WhatsApp messages via the ‘Compose’ menu. You can also configure automation workflows in combination with other sources, such as emails, SMS messages or Signal messages.

Configuration

  1. In SMSEagle web-GUI > menu WhatsApp > select the Settings tab and click Show QR code.

  2. Open the WhatsApp application on your mobile phone, open the context menu (three dots) and go to “Linked devices”.

3. Select Link a device and scan the QR code displayed in SMSEagle web-GUI.

4. Once the app is paired you’re ready to send/receive WhatsApp messages via SMSEagle.

Send WhatsApp message with SMS/MMS fallback

In the WhatsApp Settings tab you can set a fallback to SMS/MMS. If the recipient’s number is not registered with WhatsApp, the SMSEagle will send the message as an SMS or MMS (if the message includes attachments).

Example usage scenarios

Below are just a few examples of how the Workflows feature can be used. Basic scenarios can be extended with advanced run conditions, and multiple channels can be integrated.
