WhatsApp Use

Introduction

Connect WhatsApp to agents and applications through hosted MCP and REST APIs.

WhatsApp Use connects an existing WhatsApp account to your agent or application. Pair the account once, then use MCP or the REST API to read conversations, search recent history, receive events, and send messages when write access is enabled.

How it works

Pair a WhatsApp account

The account owner scans a QR code from the platform dashboard or a REST pairing flow.

Choose MCP or REST

Use MCP for AI clients. Use REST for application code, backend jobs, and webhooks.

Control access

API keys and MCP grants belong to an organization and use scopes for read, write, and webhook access.

WhatsApp pairing and MCP OAuth are separate. Pairing connects WhatsApp Use to WhatsApp. OAuth authorizes an MCP client to use one paired connection.
