How to integrate WhatsApp to Formstack  – Main method

If you haven’t already done so, you must first:

1) Create an account Callbell and integrate WhatsApp Business API

2) Create an account Formstack. 

Once this is done, you can start using the Callbell API documentation to connect your company WhatsApp account to Formstack  according to your needs.

Here are some interesting examples of how to take advantage of this integration and improve business processes.

1) Generate WhatsApp leads using Formstack 

With this implementation, it will be possible to quickly and automatically sync and collect contacts generated in Formstack with Callbell.

For example, let’s imagine creating a Formstack  where the objective is to collect WhatsApp contacts, qualifying them with a series of questions and information. Thanks to Callbell’s API connection, every time a contact fills in this information in Formstack , a new contact will be created within the Callbell platform with all the information collected in the form.

2) Automatically send a WhatsApp message to users who fill out a Formstack  form 

This is where things get good. Thanks to it we will have the possibility of sending (in a totally automated way) a WhatsApp templateto all the users who will complete the Formstack  that you will have connected via API to Callbell.

Not only that, it will also be possible to enter variables within the WhatsApp message sent, for an even more personalized service. 

Let’s take an example:

You have just created a form in Formstack  where in question 1 you ask for the name of the contact or potential customer and in question 2 you ask for the phone number or contact information.

Suppose we want to send this WhatsApp message template.

Hello {{1}}, thank you for completing this form, our team will contact you as soon as possible.

Thanks to the API implementations, it will be possible to create a rule that makes the variable in the message template populate with the information entered in question 1 and then send the message to the WhatsApp number entered in question number 2.
