Getting Started

This guide will help you send your first message using the WazzAPI API for programmatic WhatsApp messaging.

Get Your API Key

API keys can be created from your WazzAPI Dashboard or via the API Keys endpoint.
Keep your API key secure and never expose it in client-side code.

Send Your First Message

Use the cURL command below to send a test message. Replace YOUR_API_KEY, PHONE_NUMBER, and ACCOUNT_ID with your actual values.
curl -X POST https://api.wazzapi.io/api/v1/messages \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "phone": "+1234567890",
    "message": "Hello from WazzAPI!",
    "whatsappAccountId": "wa_abc123"
  }'

Track Message Status

You can check the status of your message using the message ID returned in the response.
