WhatsApp Onboarding
This process requires using the Microsoft Teams browser version, as onboarding through the Teams desktop or mobile app may cause issues with Meta’s callback mechanism.
Important Note: Use Microsoft Teams in a Browser
Why? If you try to onboard via the Teams App, we don’t receive the required callback from Meta.
What Happens? Without this callback, your WhatsApp Business Number won’t be mapped to Teams properly.
Solution: Always complete the onboarding process in Microsoft Teams on a web browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari).
Step 1: Open Microsoft Teams in a Browser
Log in to your Microsoft Teams account at https://teams.microsoft.com.
Navigate to Apps and search for Mercuri WhatsApp Integration.
Click Install and authorize the integration.
Step 2: Start WhatsApp Business API Onboarding
Navigate to Mercuri Dashboard > Channels > WhatsApp.
Click Onboard New Number.
Follow the instructions to connect your WhatsApp Business Account.
Step 3: Verify WhatsApp Connection in Teams
Return to Microsoft Teams (browser version).
Navigate to Mercuri WhatsApp Inbox within Teams.
Send a test message to confirm that WhatsApp is correctly mapped.
