Action
Upload media
Upload media files (images, videos, audio, documents, stickers) to whatsapp servers. the uploaded media gets a media id that can be used in send media or other messaging actions. supported formats: - images: jpeg, png (max 5mb) - videos: mp4, 3gpp (max 16mb) - audio: aac, m4a, amr, mp3, ogg (max 16mb) - documents: pdf, doc, docx, ppt, pptx, xls, xlsx (max 100mb) - stickers: webp (max 500kb, 512x512 pixels)
Why this helps
Waiting to find and upload an asset can slow down a review that is otherwise ready to move.
- Upload a supplied asset for WhatsApp use
- Make a media ID available for a later send
- Prepare review materials ahead of time
