Send Whatsapp Messages with Python and Twilio Part 2
Hey Everyone!
In this video we are going to add another feature to our live cricket score fetcher, we are going to send the cricket score fetched from cricapi and send it as a Whatsapp message.
To send the cricket score as a whatsapp message we are going to use Twiio Sandbox feature that has Whatsapp Beta integrated into it. This would help use send Whatsapp Messages from the Twilio Account to particular whatsapp numbers that are registed with Twilio.
Twilio has created a sandbox environment for testing. The Sandbox allows you to send and receive pre-approved template messages using a shared Twilio test number that you select at activation.
In order to send or receive WhatsApp messages to a user from the Sandbox, you must first have them join the sandbox. Send “ join your sandbox keyword” to your Sandbox number in WhatsApp to join your Sandbox, and twilio replies with a confirmation that you've joined.
Now to do the same with Python we are going to use the Twilio python api and install it with PIP.
