Two Way WhatsApp Messaging
This functionality helps users to send Two Way WhatsApp messages(allows users to send and receive messages 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.
