Hello Vignesh,

Thank you for reaching out to Kore.ai Community.

We have tested the Whatsapp integration (Infobip) on our end and it is working as expected. Could you please check the below steps and let us know if you have done all these steps and even though the Whatsapp channel testing is not working for instance bot?

  • You have a activate number registered in the Infobip account which you will be adding in the Whatsapp channel configuration. (Log in).
  • When you open the number in the infobip account, you have activated the keyword and added the Webhook URL (available in the whatsapp channel configuration) in the Edit Keyword configuration in infobip.
