For example, it can be used to programmatically start a WhatsApp instance by providing its ID, enabling integration with other workflows or systems.
Use Case Examples
- Starting a WhatsApp instance by providing the instance ID to automate the activation process.
- Managing multiple WhatsApp instances by starting or stopping them as needed within an automated workflow.
