Frequently asked questions
Does this plugin work without WooCommerce?
No. Sandeshify is built specifically for WooCommerce and requires it to be installed and active.
Which API does this plugin use?
Sandeshify uses the official Meta (Facebook) WhatsApp Business Cloud API. You will need a Meta Developer account and a verified WhatsApp Business phone number to use this plugin. This plugin is not affiliated with or endorsed by WhatsApp LLC or Meta Platforms, Inc.
Are my API credentials stored securely?
Yes. All API credentials are encrypted using AES-256-CBC encryption before being stored in your WordPress database. Your credentials never pass through our servers.
Can I test the plugin without sending real messages to customers?
Yes. Enable Test Mode in the General settings tab. All notification attempts will be logged with a “Test” status, but no actual messages will be sent and no API quota will be consumed.
Why am I receiving an HTTP 400 error from the API?
The WhatsApp Business API only permits free-form text messages within an active 24-hour customer conversation window. Outside this window, you must use a pre-approved Meta message template. This is a restriction enforced by Meta, not by this plugin.
Do I need to obtain customer consent before sending messages?
Yes. Store owners are responsible for ensuring they have the appropriate consent from customers before sending messages via the Meta API. Please consult Meta’s WhatsApp Business Policy and your local data protection regulations.
Is this plugin GDPR compliant?
The plugin itself does not store personal data on external servers — all data is sent directly to Meta’s API from your WordPress server. However, you are responsible for ensuring your store complies with applicable data protection laws including GDPR.
Does Sandeshify support WooCommerce HPOS?
Yes. Sandeshify is fully compatible with WooCommerce High Performance Order Storage (HPOS).
