01/03/2024, 3:43 PMHi, I tried this, but it's not working out at all. The Bot works fine on it's own, but As soon As I add the "Start WhatsApp conversation" card, it doesn't work any longer. I did everything as required, from the message template to the phone number fields, it doesn't seem to work. Any chanse you've tried this and can walk me throught it?

I haven't actually gone through the whatsapp setup, but I did go through the source code a bit to help me build my own integration.
