Create a flow

Prerequisites

Before you get started with Flows, you will need to verify your business, complete the display name review process and maintain a high message quality.

Create your first flow

  1. In the WhatsApp Manager of your WhatsApp Business Account, select Account tools on the left-side menu and then click Flows.

  2. On the top right of the page, click the button titled Create Flow

  3. A new screen will open where you can enter some details about your Flow

    • Give the flow a meaningful name

    • Select the categories that the flow relates to

    • Select without endpoint for flows that will not call an endpoint, or with an endpoint for flows that will use a backend API to exchange data with the flow

  4. Once you have created a flow you will then have to define the JSON to build your user experience. You can find the flow JSON overview here and then a list of all available components here

    1. If you are going to deploy a Flow with an endpoint you can use Bird Flows with the WhatsApp Flows endpoint trigger to deploy an endpoint to power your WhatsApp Flow
