Maytapi - WhatsApp Api Bot Example

A simple python bot for Maytapi WhatsApp Api

Our Website • WhatsApp Api Documentations • WhatsApp Api Postman Collection

• In this example we echo the text messages back to user.
• We use ngrok to create temporary https reverse proxy so whatsapp can reach our demo api.
• Because ngrok public url changes everytime we also change webhook settings in our instance at boot. This should not be used like this in production environments.
• NOTE: Before testing the demo you need to create your phone instance and connect an active WhatsApp account to instance in Phones Page.

Installation
