Glossary Term
WhatsApp Business API
The official corporate application gateway provided by Meta to programmatically send and receive high volumes of messages.
Detailed Definition
Unlike standard WhatsApp apps on smartphones, the WhatsApp Business API (often referred to as WABA) has no physical device dependency. It links your phone number directly to Meta's servers, allowing cloud platforms like Botalyzer to manage chatbot logic, route webhooks, and automate communications stably without risk of device bans.
