FAQs

1. When I checked the customer, I checked the checkbox next to "Name" and selected the customer, but when I exported the customer information, there were only 20 pieces of customer information instead of all the customer information.

If you want to check all customers, you can click Select All at the bottom to select all customers.

Note: Checking the checkbox next to a name only selects all customers on a certain page, not all customers.

The detailed check function description is as follows:

• If you only need to select a small number of specific customers, simply check the box next to the user's name.

• To select customers on a particular page, check the box next to their name.

• If you need to select all customers, click the bottom Select All.

2. How to add WhatsApp templates?

You can manage templates or add new templates in [ Marketing - WhatsApp API Template ].

Before submitting the template, please try passive chatting for 3-5 days (i.e. visitors actively send messages to WS accounts). Directly applying for templates or sending group messages may easily lead to the new account being blocked. When filling out the template, you can refer to the official template examples to increase the probability of passing the template review: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/updates-to-pricing/new-template-guidelines
