This overview provides information about the various features Swat.io provides via the WhatsApp interface, specifically the Unified Messaging API from our partner MessengerPeople by Sinch, which enables the connection to Swat.io.
For general information on that, please visit: www.messengerpeople.dev.

Important: WhatsApp is only available in connection with the Swat.io Inbox, as the API only allows responding to incoming messages.
