Two Way Whatsapp Messaging

This functionality helps users to send Two Way Whatsapp messages(allows users to send and receive message from a whatsapp number through a whatsapp messaging platform)

Note: Brands can reply to a customer’s query on WhatsApp only within 24 hours from the
customer’s last message on Brands business WhatsApp. When a user sends a message to your WhatsApp Business API, they become an active user. A session starts from the latest user message. Sessions remain Active for 24 hours.
