📌 Video Description
In this video, Dave shares how he set up a WhatsApp AI bot using only Python, and he did it for free. He carefully shows you through a repository with all the code and instructions you need to do this on your own devices. Dave makes sure you know the basics, like understanding Python and setting things up in VS Code, so you're ready to make your own WhatsApp AI bot. He points out that you should start with a Meta developer account and make a business app. This is key for linking WhatsApp with the bot.
Dave goes into the technical steps of getting the WhatsApp business app and API ready. This includes getting a test phone number and adding it to Meta's developer portal. He teaches how to use the API to send messages and the important part of setting up environment variables for the bot to work smoothly. Dave shows you how to send a "Hello World" test message and why replying to this message is important for more custom messaging. This part is essential to understand how the bot works with WhatsApp's messaging service.
Next, Dave talks about webhooks, which let the bot receive and answer messages on its own. This part can be tough but also rewarding. It's about setting up webhooks to act when messages come in. Dave takes you through how to set up and protect webhooks, so you can get your applications to listen for messages well. This is important if you want to make interactive and quick-to-respond WhatsApp bots.
Towards the end of the video, Dave looks at adding AI to the WhatsApp bot. This turns it from a simple auto-responder into a smart AI assistant that can handle complex questions. He shows how to use OpenAI services to make the bot better, giving you a peek at what AI can do in messaging apps. Dave finishes by encouraging you to look into more API features and think about the security of webhook interactions. This guide isn't just a tutorial; it's an invite to dive into the exciting mix of AI and messaging apps. It gives you the tools and info to create your own advanced WhatsApp AI bots.

For everyone running into 403, it's in the decorator. Or at least it was for me. If you comment out the security required and @security required on the views.py file you should be good to go. Might not be the entirety of it but hopefully it sends you all in the right direction

The custom TO-DO response variable wasn't commented out. # TODO: implement custom function here #response = generate_response(message_body) I haven't tested anything past this point but I will update this comment once I successfully make it through the complete tutorial. ChatGPT is crazy good.... I would have never figured this out. EDIT: I was able to get this tutorial to work with the changes that I made @daveebbelaar However I am seeing that the app seems to be getting some some calls to the webhook that repeats a request for old information multiple times.

Oof... I already got stuck on the first 3 minutes of the tutorial. Facebook is not allowing me to verify my business account, which is making me unable to create a Whatsapp app. I get the following error: "Your business is prohibited from advertising, including claiming apps." Did anyone encounter this and found a solution for it?

I sent a photo of my ID, after that they gave me access

Facebook is blocked in my country. I use VPN to access it. And it tells me "your business is prohibited from advertising, including claiming apps" That's when I add the business name. How can I bypass this challenge?

what country are you from? Is your country actively using whatsapp?
