Send an interactive list message to a whatsapp number. list messages allow users to select from up to 10 options in a structured format. great for menus, catalogs, or choices. note: the message will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.
Why this helps

- Make recurring selection requests easier to scan.
- Use only options grounded in information you provide.
