How to Use

1. Go to Settings → WhatsApp API to configure your WhatsApp API endpoint and headers.
2. Go to Settings → WhatsApp Templates to create message templates.
3. In the template form:
   • Recipient: Enter a Python expression that returns a list or recordset of res.partner (e.g., obj.partner_ids).
   • Parameters: For type Expression, use ${...} expressions (e.g., ${obj.name}).
4. Trigger sending via automation or manually from the record:
   • Use in automated rules:
     • Go to Settings → Technical → Automation → Automated Actions
     • Create a new automated action with your desired trigger (e.g., "On Create", "On Update")
     • Set the action type to "Send Whatsapp API"
     • Select the desired WhatsApp template in the "Whatsapp Template" field
   • Use as action server, manually trigger:
     • Go to Settings → Technical → Actions → Server Actions
     • Create a new server action and set the model and action type to "Send Whatsapp API"
     • Select the desired WhatsApp template in the "Whatsapp Template" field
     • Add the server action to the model's "Action" menu or create a button
     • Users can manually trigger WhatsApp messages from record forms
   • Manual usage from any model (Python code):
     • Just call send_whatsapp_by_template('<Template Name>') on any recordset of the target model.
     • Works on single or multiple records (vectorized).
     • The argument is the WhatsApp Template's Name for that model.
     • Alternative: fetch the template and call template.send(records).
     • Example:
       
       # single record
       self.send_whatsapp_by_template('Order Confirmation')
       # For a batch of orders
       orders = self.env['sale.order'].search([('state', '=', 'sale')])
       orders.send_whatsapp_by_template('Order Confirmation')
   • View logs for each WhatsApp API by clicking the smart button in the API form.

Available Variables in Templates

• obj: The current record (same as object)
• partner: The recipient partner (from the recipient expression)
• phone: The recipient's phone number
• ctx: The Odoo context
