Link WhatsApp
This channel uses WhatsApp Web (linked device) — no API key, no Meta registration. After installing you scan a QR code, exactly like linking WhatsApp Web on the desktop.
1. Install
The fields below are optional — just install.
2. Scan the QR code
- After installing, open the plugin admin UI (connection status).
- A QR code appears.
- On your phone: WhatsApp → Settings → Linked Devices → Link a Device → scan the QR code.
- Wait for the connected status. The bot now shows up under Linked Devices with the device name set above.
⚠️ Note: this is an unofficial WhatsApp Web client (Baileys), not the official WhatsApp Business Cloud API. Prefer a dedicated, separate number — excessive automation can be restricted by WhatsApp.
3. Limit the reach (optional)
Ignore groups keeps the bot silent in groups; the allowlist restricts
it to specific phone numbers (E.164, e.g. 491701234567).
