Connecting WhatsApp to Glanevo through the official Cloud API: **1. Meta Business Manager.** - Create an account at [business.facebook.com](https://business.facebook.com). - Business name, tax number, address. **2. WhatsApp Business account.** - Meta Business → WhatsApp → add a number. - Use a business number that is not already on personal WhatsApp. - Verify by SMS or call. **3. Display name approval.** Meta approves the name people will see (“Salon X”, say) in one to three days. **4. Connect it to Glanevo.** - Settings → Integrations → WhatsApp → “Connect” → Meta OAuth. - The token reaches Glanevo and the webhook is set up automatically. **5. Create templates.** WhatsApp Manager → Templates → appointment reminder, campaign, invoice. - Meta approval takes one to three days. **6. Test.** Send yourself a test message from Glanevo. 📨 Cost: roughly $0.005–$0.05 per message on Meta's tariff, depending on country. ⚠️ Never send bulk messages outside an approved template — your line will be shut down.
