Every whatsapp step above contains different number and need to add otp code which is inappropriate to ask the person. How do i shortened the step so i only need to add the people number but doesn’t have to add more steps and doesn’t require otp code?

Not that I’m aware of.

 

2. Confirm your phone number 

  • Click Sign In.
  • The authentication dialog box will appear.

  • Click the hyperlink this link. This will open a new tab in your browser to connect to your WhatsApp account.
  • In the new tab, click Continue to Chat
  • You’ll then be prompted to open WhatsApp.
    • If you have the WhatsApp application installed on your computer, you’ll receive a prompt to open up your WhatsApp application.
    • If you don’t have the WhatsApp application, you can download it or use WhatsApp Web instead.
  • Once you’ve opened WhatsApp in either the web browser or application, you’ll have a pre-filled message to send to Zapier. Click send.
