whatsapp connect
Connect a customer-owned WABA through Meta embedded signup. Connection confirmation is not phone registration, business verification, or send readiness.
When to use
- Connect or refresh a WABA; use
--waitfor the supported 10-second status poll.
How it works
- Reads the baseline WhatsApp status, then prints the dashboard signup link. With
--waitit polls status every ten seconds until account linkage/onboarding changes or timeout; it cannot observe abandoned/failed Meta onboarding.
Prerequisites
- Browser access to complete Meta signup.
Expected outcome
A handoff URL, and optionally confirmed account-linkage change.
Next steps
- Complete signup, then inspect status and diagnose; finish number, business, billing and template readiness.
Usage
akedly whatsapp connect
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp connect" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--wait | boolean switch | — | Command-specific option; see the full command details below. |
--timeout | seconds | — | Command-specific option; see the full command details below. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:read.
Dashboard path: /admin/whatsapp-connect. Status check: whatsapp status.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Print the dashboard WhatsApp sign-up link without opening a browser. Optionally --wait polls whatsapp status, which calls Meta, every ten seconds; the wait defaults to ten minutes and --timeout sets it. Completion confirms only an account connection or refreshed onboarding, not registered numbers, business verification or sending readiness; check akedly whatsapp status and akedly whatsapp diagnose. An already connected account without new onboarding times out. The CLI cannot see abandoned or failed Meta onboarding. For multiple numbers use akedly whatsapp set-primary.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response

Response contract
This is the CLI handoff document, not a Meta API response. --wait adds waited outcome/polls/elapsedSeconds after observed connection change; a timeout is an error.
Examples are synthetic and do not establish that the dashboard signup was completed.

whatsapp status
Read live connected WABA state, phone inventory and setup checklist; connected is account-level, not sending readiness.
When to use
- After signup, phone sync/primary selection, or uncertain disconnect.
How it works
- Fetches Meta account/phone state and refreshes persisted state.
Prerequisites
- Account login; absence of a WABA is a valid result.
Expected outcome
Connected state plus phones/checklist, or connected:false.
Next steps
- Use diagnose for live recommendations and sending-status for DB-only recent attempts.
Usage
akedly whatsapp status
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp status" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:read.
Server request: GET /meta-tech-provider/status.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Read the connected account status, phone numbers and setup checklist. This GET calls Meta live and updates stored phone/account state; do not poll it repeatedly yourself; akedly whatsapp connect --wait is the supported poller, every ten seconds. It covers only the connected account and returns connected false when none exists. Read-only logins are supported. connected is account-level only; inspect phone state and setupChecklist for sending readiness.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response
After signup, phone sync/primary selection, or uncertain disconnect.
akedly whatsapp status
Illustrative response (sensitive values omitted):
{
"status": "success",
"data": {
"connected": false
}
}
Example is documentation only and has not been run. Resource ids do not assert existing state.
Keep BYO-SMS output private: visible endpoint/template text may contain literal credentials.

Examples are synthetic; resource state, readiness, provider outcome, and fees vary by account.

Usage
akedly whatsapp sending-status
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp sending-status" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:read.
Server request: GET /meta-tech-provider/sending-status.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Read database-only sending readiness and recent own-WABA attempts/failures for the connected account. No live Meta check is made; recent activity is limited to ten own-WABA attempts. Read-only logins are supported.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.

whatsapp diagnose
Run live Meta setup checks and actionable recommendations for an active WABA.
When to use
- After setup changes or unexplained readiness trouble.
How it works
- Calls Meta; POST is read-like, no
--yes; dry-run makes no calls.
Prerequisites
- Active connected WABA.
Expected outcome
Health, checks and recommendations.
Next steps
- Fix blockers and re-check sending-status.
Usage
akedly whatsapp diagnose
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp diagnose" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:read.
Server request: POST /meta-tech-provider/diagnose.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Diagnose the connected account with live Meta checks and return recommendations; this POST is read-like and needs no --yes. An active WABA is required. Dry-run makes no calls. Read-only logins are supported.

The contract below describes typed arguments, file formats, validation boundaries and API mappings. Boolean switches take no value; numeric and comma-separated values are each passed as one argument. Read prerequisites and full command details for state-dependent requirements.

Response contract
Schema describes the stable CLI-visible success envelope and known stable fields. API-owned fields may be added; fields omitted by member visibility or absent resource state may be absent.
Examples are synthetic; resource state, readiness, provider outcome, and fees vary by account.

"SETTING_NOT_FOR_THIS_PIPELINE": "Nothing in this request was saved. details.setting names the setting and details.useInstead what to use instead. For rate limits and the circuit breaker, reason api-version means this is a V1 or V2 pipeline, where they belong to a widget instead, so useInstead is widgets update. A widget must be attached to this pipeline first. Find attached widgets with akedly widgets list-filtered --pipeline-id <pipelineId>, then inspect the intended widget with akedly widgets get <widgetId>, using its 24-hex _id. This listing excludes inactive widgets by default. Also run akedly widgets list-filtered --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --status inactive before concluding that no widget is attached. Change its limits with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --rate-limits-file <file> --yes; use the widget file shape, not the pipeline file shape. Set its breaker with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --circuit-breaker on --yes (or off), and use --circuit-breaker-file <file> for widget thresholds and suspension durations; pipeline --circuit-breaker-sensitivity does not apply to widgets. If no widget is attached, create one with akedly widgets create --name <name> --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --secret-file <new path>, or attach an existing one with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --yes. V2 attachment requires both callback URLs; V1 attachment requires entitlement. pipelines update now routes shared rate-limit, breaker and PoW flags to every attached widget on V1/V2. V1.2-only controls remain refused on V1/V2. Use the appropriate file shape for the resulting API version. For the Channel Choice widget experience, reason api-version means it needs a V2 pipeline, so create one with akedly pipelines create --name <name> --api-version v2 --redirect-url <url> --webhook-url <url> --secret-file <new path>, then attach a widget to it; reason no-widget means it needs a widget attached to this V2 pipeline, so create one with akedly widgets create --name <name> --pipeline-id <id> --secret-file <new path>, or attach an existing one with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --pipeline-id <id> --yes, then retry.

"RATE_LIMIT_INVALID": "Check details.field and any details.errors. Use whole numbers above zero in the expected JSON object shape. Pipeline --rate-limits-file uses perPhoneNumber, perIpAddress and perPipeline; widget --rate-limits-file uses widgetAttempts and otpRequests, each with perPhoneNumber, perDevice and perWidget. Each takes perMinute, perHour and perDay. Widget --circuit-breaker-file uses floodThresholds and suspensionSeconds; durations are whole seconds. Correct the named field and rerun the command.",
"EXPECTED_UPDATED_AT_INVALID": "The CLI reads the revision automatically. Run the command again to read the current settings; if this continues, check that the CLI and server are up to date and contact Akedly support. Do not invent a revision or remove the conflict check.",
"DESTINATION_COUNTRIES_MODE_REQUIRED": "Nothing in this request was saved.

whatsapp sync-phone-numbers
Refresh Meta phone inventory; a missing previous primary can move OTP sends to another number or Akedly’s shared number.
When to use
- After phone changes in Meta.
How it works
- Synchronizes Meta results into account phone state.
Prerequisites
- Active WABA.
Expected outcome
Phone inventory, completeness and optional selection change.
Next steps
- Review status; set primary if needed.
Usage
akedly whatsapp sync-phone-numbers
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp sync-phone-numbers" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: POST /meta-tech-provider/sync-phone-numbers.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Refresh phone numbers from Meta for the connected active WABA. This can change or clear the selected OTP sending number; review whatsapp status afterwards. No --yes is required. Read-only logins are refused. Use akedly whatsapp set-primary to restore a cleared sending number.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response

Change its limits with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --rate-limits-file <file> --yes; use the widget file shape, not the pipeline file shape.

whatsapp set-primary
Choose the WABA phone used for OTP sends.
When to use
- Select/restore primary phone after sync or adding a number.
How it works
- Checks Meta phoneNumberId belongs to active WABA, then saves primary.
Prerequisites
- PhoneNumberId from status; active WABA.
Expected outcome
Phone list with primary state.
Next steps
- Verify status.
Usage
akedly whatsapp set-primary <phoneNumberId>
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp set-primary" --output json
| Positional | Grammar | Usage guidance |
|---|---|---|
| <phoneNumberId> | ^[0-9]+$ | Use the phoneNumberId from akedly whatsapp status. |
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--yes | boolean switch | — | Confirm this action where consent is required. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: PUT /meta-tech-provider/phone-numbers/:phoneNumberId/primary.
Consent
--yes. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Select a phone belonging to the connected active WABA as the OTP sending phone. Use the Meta phoneNumberId from whatsapp status, not a Mongo id. Needs --yes because WhatsApp OTP messages start sending from this phone. Read-only logins are refused. A phone not on the connected WABA is refused with HTTP 404: Phone number not found in this WABA.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response
Select/restore primary phone after sync or adding a number.
akedly whatsapp set-primary 123456789 --yes

whatsapp retry-register-phone
Retry Meta registration with a new random PIN for one connected WABA phone.
When to use
- Recover a known failed registration; no automatic retries.
How it works
- Verifies ownership and retries with Meta.
Prerequisites
- PhoneNumberId from status; active WABA.
Expected outcome
Registration success for that phone.
Next steps
- On ambiguous failure inspect status before retry; Meta ownership check unavailable means wait then retry.
Usage
akedly whatsapp retry-register-phone <phoneNumberId>
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp retry-register-phone" --output json
| Positional | Grammar | Usage guidance |
|---|---|---|
| <phoneNumberId> | ^[0-9]+$ | Use the phoneNumberId from akedly whatsapp status. |
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: POST /meta-tech-provider/retry-register-phone/:phoneNumberId.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
write: Non-idempotent writes are not automatically retried. guarded-write: when an update carries the revision read from the server, its write is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. It may already be saved; inspect the resource before rerunning. A rerun reads current settings again. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. recommendation-read: the recommendation request made while planning --recommended-limits is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. If planning fails, no update is sent; rerun the command to request a new recommendation. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. This label does not change the retry policy of the standalone rate-recommendations command.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Retry registration of a phone belonging to your WABA using a new random PIN through Meta. Uses the Meta phoneNumberId from whatsapp status. No --yes is required; automatic retries are disabled. After an ambiguous failure check whatsapp status before retrying. Read-only logins are refused. If Meta cannot confirm the phone right now, the server answers 503 WABA_PHONE_CHECK_UNAVAILABLE; wait a few minutes and retry. A 404 means the phone is not on this WABA.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response
Recover a known failed registration; no automatic retries.
akedly whatsapp retry-register-phone 123456789
Illustrative response (sensitive values omitted):
{
"status": "success",
"message": "Phone number registered successfully",
"data": {
"phoneNumberId": "123456789"
}
}
Example is documentation only and has not been run. Resource ids do not assert existing state.
Keep BYO-SMS output private: visible endpoint/template text may contain literal credentials.

whatsapp retry-template
Retry missing/unusable built-in OTP language variants without recreating usable variants.
When to use
- Repair built-in OTP template provisioning.
How it works
- Identifies retryable variants and provisions only missing ones.
Prerequisites
- Connected WABA.
Expected outcome
Per-language results; can be a no-op.
Next steps
- Inspect language states and status.
Usage
akedly whatsapp retry-template
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp retry-template" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: POST /meta-tech-provider/retry-template.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Retry missing or unusable built-in OTP language variants for the connected account. Existing usable variants are not recreated; if none are missing this is a no-op. Uses Meta provisioning and requires no --yes. Read-only logins are refused.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.

whatsapp disconnect
Remove linked WABA/token and return OTP WhatsApp routing to Akedly’s default number.
When to use
- Intentionally stop own-WABA usage; destructive, requires consent flag.
How it works
- Clears WABA/phone links; no reason field supported.
Prerequisites
- Connected account and
--yes.
Expected outcome
Disconnect result.
Next steps
- Verify status; reconnect via dashboard handoff if needed.
Usage
akedly whatsapp disconnect
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp disconnect" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--yes | boolean switch | — | Confirm this action where consent is required. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: POST /meta-tech-provider/disconnect.
Consent
--yes. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: true. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
write: Non-idempotent writes are not automatically retried. guarded-write: when an update carries the revision read from the server, its write is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. It may already be saved; inspect the resource before rerunning. A rerun reads current settings again. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. recommendation-read: the recommendation request made while planning --recommended-limits is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. If planning fails, no update is sent; rerun the command to request a new recommendation. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. This label does not change the retry policy of the standalone rate-recommendations command.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Disconnect the WhatsApp account, clear its access token and remove the user WABA/phone links. Requires --yes. No reason flag is accepted. After an ambiguous failure check whatsapp status before retrying. Read-only logins are refused. OTPs will fall back to Akedly's default WhatsApp number; reconnecting needs the dashboard WhatsApp sign-up (akedly whatsapp connect prints the link).
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response
Intentionally stop own-WABA usage; destructive, requires consent flag.
akedly whatsapp disconnect --yes
Illustrative response (sensitive values omitted):
{
"status": "success",
"message": "WhatsApp Business Account disconnected"
}
Example is documentation only and has not been run. Resource ids do not assert existing state.
Keep BYO-SMS output private: visible endpoint/template text may contain literal credentials.
Additional command forms

Usage
akedly whatsapp otp-templates library
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp otp-templates library" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:read.
Server request: GET /meta-tech-provider/otp-templates/library.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Read the usable OTP template library entries and options before choosing libraryName, supported languages and variable defaults. Read-only logins are supported.

Usage
akedly whatsapp otp-templates list
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp otp-templates list" --output json
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:read.
Server request: GET /meta-tech-provider/otp-templates.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
idempotent: Idempotent requests retry network errors and HTTP 429/502/503/504, at most 3 tries, waiting for cooldownSeconds, retryAfter or the Retry-After header (otherwise 1 second) between tries, up to 30 seconds; a longer requested wait is returned as the error.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
List your custom OTP templates, built-in default, language approval states and current WABA connection. IDs here are Mongo ids, unlike Meta phoneNumberId. Read-only logins are supported.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response

whatsapp otp-templates create
Create a library-backed customer OTP template and provision requested English/Arabic variants through Meta.
When to use
- When built-in content is unsuitable and active own WABA exists.
How it works
- Validates catalog/defaults, saves template, requests provisioning, then checks approval up to 30 sec without replaying creation.
Prerequisites
- Active WABA, allowed library/languages/defaults, below 20 active templates.
Expected outcome
The saved template includes one row per requested language. Meta status can remain PENDING when the CLI approval-check window ends; the template is saved and must not be recreated.
Next steps
- List and update missing languages; do not repeat create; attach after approved.
Usage

Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: POST /meta-tech-provider/otp-templates.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
write: Non-idempotent writes are not automatically retried. guarded-write: when an update carries the revision read from the server, its write is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. It may already be saved; inspect the resource before rerunning. A rerun reads current settings again. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. recommendation-read: the recommendation request made while planning --recommended-limits is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. If planning fails, no update is sent; rerun the command to request a new recommendation. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. This label does not change the retry policy of the standalone rate-recommendations command.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Add an OTP template from required --library-name and --languages (unique comma-separated en,ar). Optional --security-recommendation on|off defaults to on, subject to library policy. --defaults-file is a regular JSON object keyed by language then variable name, at most 64 KiB; library defaults apply when omitted. An active own WABA is required; at most 20 non-archived templates per WABA. HTTP 502 TEMPLATE_PROVISIONING_FAILED means the template was saved: list it and recover NOT_FOUND languages with otp-templates update <id> --add-languages en,ar rather than create again. Automatic retries are disabled; no --yes is required. Read-only logins are refused. Run akedly whatsapp otp-templates library to find valid library names and variable names. When adding languages, the CLI checks their approval for up to 30 seconds without repeating the write. If approval is still pending or the status check fails, the saved template is returned successfully and stderr gives its status and the pipeline attach command. A defaults-only update does not wait.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.

Create bilingual OTP template with defaults from a JSON file
Use a reviewed library entry and supply English and Arabic purpose text for a newly provisioned template. A connected own WABA and an available template slot are required; this provisions Meta templates, whose approval can remain pending after the CLI wait window. The saved template must be listed and recovered rather than created again.

Response contract
Custom-template response is serialized from the stored template and Meta language rows; each requested language can remain PENDING or NOT_FOUND when provisioning/approval is incomplete.
Meta approval and the local template record are separate; never treat a saved record as approved or send-ready.

For rate limits and the circuit breaker, reason api-version means this is a V1 or V2 pipeline, where they belong to a widget instead, so useInstead is widgets update. A widget must be attached to this pipeline first. Find attached widgets with akedly widgets list-filtered --pipeline-id <pipelineId>, then inspect the intended widget with akedly widgets get <widgetId>, using its 24-hex _id. This listing excludes inactive widgets by default. Also run akedly widgets list-filtered --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --status inactive before concluding that no widget is attached. Change its limits with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --rate-limits-file <file> --yes; use the widget file shape, not the pipeline file shape. Set its breaker with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --circuit-breaker on --yes (or off), and use --circuit-breaker-file <file> for widget thresholds and suspension durations; pipeline --circuit-breaker-sensitivity does not apply to widgets. If no widget is attached, create one with akedly widgets create --name <name> --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --secret-file <new path>, or attach an existing one with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --yes. V2 attachment requires both callback URLs; V1 attachment requires entitlement. pipelines update now routes shared rate-limit, breaker and PoW flags to every attached widget on V1/V2. V1.2-only controls remain refused on V1/V2. Use the appropriate file shape for the resulting API version. For the Channel Choice widget experience, reason api-version means it needs a V2 pipeline, so create one with akedly pipelines create --name <name> --api-version v2 --redirect-url <url> --webhook-url <url> --secret-file <new path>, then attach a widget to it; reason no-widget means it needs a widget attached to this V2 pipeline, so create one with akedly widgets create --name <name> --pipeline-id <id> --secret-file <new path>, or attach an existing one with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --pipeline-id <id> --yes, then retry.

whatsapp otp-templates update
Merge variable defaults or provision missing/retryable variants on an existing template.
When to use
- Recover partial provisioning or change defaults.
How it works
- Applies selected defaults or adds languages, checks language approval up to 30 seconds.
Prerequisites
- Template id; valid library variables; connected WABA for provisioning.
Expected outcome
The saved template includes one row per requested language. Meta status can remain PENDING when the CLI approval-check window ends; the template is saved and must not be recreated.
Next steps
- List and retry only missing languages; library and security setting are immutable here.
Usage
akedly whatsapp otp-templates update <id>
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp otp-templates update" --output json
| Positional | Grammar | Usage guidance |
|---|---|---|
| <id> | ^[a-fA-F0-9]{24}$ | Use the id from akedly whatsapp otp-templates list. |
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--add-languages | text | — | Command-specific option; see the full command details below. Manifest body field: addLanguages. |
--defaults-file | text | — | Command-specific option; see the full command details below. Manifest body field: defaults. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: PATCH /meta-tech-provider/otp-templates/:id.
Consent
none. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: false. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
write: Non-idempotent writes are not automatically retried. guarded-write: when an update carries the revision read from the server, its write is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. It may already be saved; inspect the resource before rerunning. A rerun reads current settings again. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. recommendation-read: the recommendation request made while planning --recommended-limits is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. If planning fails, no update is sent; rerun the command to request a new recommendation. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. This label does not change the retry policy of the standalone rate-recommendations command.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Update variable defaults from --defaults-file (regular JSON object keyed by language then variable name, at most 64 KiB), or add unique en,ar languages with --add-languages. Defaults merge with current values; library rules validate fixed variables and requested languages. Existing language variants can be retried only when missing/NOT_FOUND or orphaned; already usable languages are refused. Library name and securityRecommendation cannot be changed here. HTTP 502 TEMPLATE_PROVISIONING_FAILED means changes were saved; list the template and retry failed languages with addLanguages. No --yes is required. Read-only logins are refused. When adding languages, the CLI checks their approval for up to 30 seconds without repeating the write. If approval is still pending or the status check fails, the saved template is returned successfully and stderr gives its status and the pipeline attach command. A defaults-only update does not wait.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.

Update existing OTP variable defaults from a JSON file
Revise default purpose wording on an existing verify_otp_usecase template without changing its library, security setting, or language set. The template must belong to the account and the supplied keys must match its supported variables and languages.

V1.2-only controls remain refused on V1/V2. Use the appropriate file shape for the resulting API version.

whatsapp otp-templates delete
Archive OTP template locally and attempt Meta variant deletion.
When to use
- Retire unused template; destructive.
How it works
- Archives; Meta deletion may independently fail and is exposed in result.
Prerequisites
- Template id and
--yes.
Expected outcome
Archive result and metaDelete outcome.
Next steps
- Verify list and resolve failed Meta cleanup.
Usage
akedly whatsapp otp-templates delete <id>
Inspect this command offline before preparing an operation:
akedly describe "whatsapp otp-templates delete" --output json
| Positional | Grammar | Usage guidance |
|---|---|---|
| <id> | ^[a-fA-F0-9]{24}$ | Use the id from akedly whatsapp otp-templates list. |
Flags
| Flag | Type | Enum / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--ksa | boolean switch | — | Select the KSA deployment. |
--dry-run | boolean switch | — | Preview without sending the write or creating output files; planning reads may still occur. Bypass consent. |
--yes | boolean switch | — | Confirm this action where consent is required. |
--help | boolean switch | — | Show offline command help. |
--output | enum | json | human | Select JSON or human output. |
--fields | dot-paths | — | Select comma-separated safe dot paths; apply to each element of a root array. |
Authentication, permission and guards
Auth: login. Permission: whatsapp:update.
Server request: DELETE /meta-tech-provider/otp-templates/:id.
Consent
--yes. --dry-run bypasses confirmation where supported. Destructive: true. Spends money: false. Real send: false.
Retry
write: Non-idempotent writes are not automatically retried. guarded-write: when an update carries the revision read from the server, its write is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. It may already be saved; inspect the resource before rerunning. A rerun reads current settings again. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. recommendation-read: the recommendation request made while planning --recommended-limits is not automatically retried after network errors or HTTP 429/502/503/504. If planning fails, no update is sent; rerun the command to request a new recommendation. The explicit CLI_RATE_LIMITED refusal exception below still applies. This label does not change the retry policy of the standalone rate-recommendations command.
Output
Output: data. API output is pass-through server data unless the command details describe a CLI shape. Local commands, composites and hand-offs use their documented CLI shapes.
Full command details
Archive your OTP template locally and attempt to delete its Meta variants when the current WABA matches. Requires --yes. A success can still report data.metaDelete.ok false; inspect the returned result. Read-only logins are refused.
Worked examples
Examples are synthetic illustrations, never live account records. Replace resource IDs with your own authorized resources. Secret values are omitted here; redacted examples illustrate the shape and are not schema-validation fixtures.
Synthetic request and response
Retire unused template; destructive.
akedly whatsapp otp-templates delete 64b000000000000000000001 --yes

Remove that method from --verification-methods and retry, or contact Akedly if you expected it to be available.",
"VERIFICATION_METHODS_REQUIRED": "A pipeline that has verification methods must keep at least one. Send the methods to keep instead of an empty list, for example akedly pipelines update <id> --verification-methods whatsapp,sms --yes.",
"SETTING_NOT_FOR_THIS_PIPELINE": "Nothing in this request was saved. details.setting names the setting and details.useInstead what to use instead. For rate limits and the circuit breaker, reason api-version means this is a V1 or V2 pipeline, where they belong to a widget instead, so useInstead is widgets update. A widget must be attached to this pipeline first. Find attached widgets with akedly widgets list-filtered --pipeline-id <pipelineId>, then inspect the intended widget with akedly widgets get <widgetId>, using its 24-hex _id. This listing excludes inactive widgets by default. Also run akedly widgets list-filtered --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --status inactive before concluding that no widget is attached. Change its limits with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --rate-limits-file <file> --yes; use the widget file shape, not the pipeline file shape. Set its breaker with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --circuit-breaker on --yes (or off), and use --circuit-breaker-file <file> for widget thresholds and suspension durations; pipeline --circuit-breaker-sensitivity does not apply to widgets. If no widget is attached, create one with akedly widgets create --name <name> --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --secret-file <new path>, or attach an existing one with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --pipeline-id <pipelineId> --yes. V2 attachment requires both callback URLs; V1 attachment requires entitlement. pipelines update now routes shared rate-limit, breaker and PoW flags to every attached widget on V1/V2. V1.2-only controls remain refused on V1/V2. Use the appropriate file shape for the resulting API version. For the Channel Choice widget experience, reason api-version means it needs a V2 pipeline, so create one with akedly pipelines create --name <name> --api-version v2 --redirect-url <url> --webhook-url <url> --secret-file <new path>, then attach a widget to it; reason no-widget means it needs a widget attached to this V2 pipeline, so create one with akedly widgets create --name <name> --pipeline-id <id> --secret-file <new path>, or attach an existing one with akedly widgets update <widgetId> --pipeline-id <id> --yes, then retry.
