What is WhatsApp Business?
The WhatsApp Business skill provides a robust bridge to the WhatsApp Business Cloud API, abstracting the complexities of OAuth authentication through the Maton gateway. It enables developers and AI agents to send text, media, and interactive messages while managing templates and business profiles seamlessly. By incorporating this into your Openclaw Skills workflow, you gain a secure, scalable way to interact with customers on the world's most popular messaging platform without managing long-lived access tokens manually.
WhatsApp Business Use Cases
- Automating customer support via rich text and interactive button messages.
- Sending transactional updates such as order confirmations or shipping notifications using approved templates.
- Managing marketing outreach with media-rich content including images, videos, and documents.
- Organizing and updating business profiles and contact information programmatically.
- Facilitating structured user choices through interactive list and reply-button messages.
How WhatsApp Business Works
- Generate a connection request through the Maton control API to initiate the OAuth handshake.
- Complete the authorization process via the provided URL to link your WhatsApp Business account.
- Retrieve the unique connection ID to target specific phone numbers or accounts within your Openclaw Skills environment.
- Route native WhatsApp API calls through the Maton gateway, which automatically handles token injection and request proxying to Meta servers.
- Process real-time responses for message delivery, media uploads, or template management tasks.
WhatsApp Business Setup
To get started, ensure you have a Maton API key and configure your environment:
# Set your API key as an environment variable
export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
Create your first connection to receive an OAuth URL:
# Create a WhatsApp Business connection
curl -X POST https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"app": "whatsapp-business"}'
Open the URL returned in the response to authorize the skill.
WhatsApp Business Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill manages data across several key WhatsApp entities and internal connection metadata. Below is the organization of the primary data structures used within Openclaw Skills:
| Data Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Connection Object | Contains the connection_id, status, and app metadata for OAuth sessions. |
| Message Payload | JSON structures defining recipient_type, messaging_product, and content (text, image, etc.). |

| Media Metadata | IDs and URLs for documents, audio, video, and images processed through the gateway. |
| Business Profile | Fields for address, description, email, and vertical industry classification. |
