Questions about this workflow
Does this create or approve a WhatsApp template?
No. The template must already exist and be approved by WhatsApp before it can be used.
Can the template be sent outside the 24-hour conversation window?
Templates are required for messages sent outside that window and for marketing or utility messages. Follow WhatsApp's template rules.
