I am doing a project using WhatsApp cloud API. I need to create a template with a media header. I have created a template with a media header without a sample image and it gets rejected. So I want to create a template with a sample image in Node JS.
Template with a media header
Add sample image for a template
curl -X POST "https://graph.facebook.com/v14.0/{whatsapp-business-account-ID}/message_templates
?name={template-name}
&language=en_US
&category=TRANSACTIONAL,
&components=[{
type:BODY,
text:{message-text}
},
{
type:HEADER,
format:IMAGE,
example:{header_handle:[{uploaded-image-file-url}]}
}],
&access_token={system-user-access-token}"
I want to add a sample image using Node JS (Not manually like the second picture).
header_handle requires a encrypted file upload provided by facebook.
This can be done by calling 2 apis.
First,
We have to create a session for the file to be uploaded.
For creating session refer this
After creating session, we will get session id to upload the original file to it.Response will look something like this:
{"id":"upload:MTphdHRhY2htZW50Ojlk2mJiZxUwLWV6MDUtNDIwMy05yTA3LWQ4ZDPmZGFkNTM0NT8=?sig=ARZqkGCA_uQMxC8nHKI"}
Second,We have to upload the file to
https://graph.facebook.com/v14.0/{above_id}
This will give a response something similar to
{"h":"2:c2FtcGxlLm1wNA==:image/jpeg:GKAj0gAUCZmJ1voFADip2iIAAAAAbugbAAAA:e:1472075513:ARZ_3ybzrQqEaluMUdI"}
Finally,
{header_handle:["2:c2FtcGxlLm1wNA==:image/jpeg:GKAj0gAUCZmJ1voFADip2iIAAAAAbugbAAAA:e:1472075513:ARZ_3ybzrQqEaluMUdI"]}
Should be added during the request to create template.
It worked for me.
See this for better understanding on how to do it.
The answer Provided by Aravindh is correct, you can follow This document from Meta to upload the Image you want.
Just make sure you use a supported type by WhatsApp API ( For WhatsApp Business Platform Cloud API , For WhatsApp Business Platform On-Premises API ) and the upload end point (file-type — The file's MIME type. Valid values are: image/jpeg, image/jpg, image/png, and video/mp4
)
Double Check if you are following exacly the types supported, for example in case of png, you need to set "file_type" to "image/png" no just "png" when creating the upload session.
I have tested it and it works for me.
Hope this helps
I'm working on a voice assistant with Nexmo.
I use Node-RED to build the NCCO object including a record node.
In the provided tutorials by Nexmo, e.g.
Build Your Own Voicemail With Node-RED and the Nexmo Voice API
the directly download the recording to the local machine.
In my case, don't want to immediately download the audio file via node-red but let Nexmo store my audios and download them all together later through e.g. a Python script.
In the docs it says that "NOTE: After your recording is complete, it is stored by Nexmo for 30 days before being automatically deleted".
Unfortunately, I can't find any reference about where the audios are stored in my Nexmo account and how to list all recordings/recording urls of a Nexmo application.
Thank you for any help.

Currently there’s no way to get the recordings as a list from Nexmo.
What you could do instead is, capture the API response from the recording webhook and log it.
Then later on when you’re ready to download them, read it back to a get recording node.
If you connect a debug node into the /recording webhook, you can see the structure of the message object.
payload: object
start_time: "2020-03-04T13:06:40Z"
recording_url: "https://api.nexmo.com/v1/files/516f74a8-abcd-4270-b553-2582650a2e5a"
size: 26478
recording_uuid: "dbd3cb68-0a3a-4c89-bc2d-7c38abd2c497"
end_time: "2020-03-04T13:06:47Z"
conversation_uuid: "CON-93ef5eef-gg92-49ae-9e01-f3c782390dd9"
timestamp: "2020-03-04T13:06:47.733Z"
You’ll need the recording_url to download a recording, but it’s good to keep the conversation_uuid handy, as you can lookup the FROM and TO numbers based on this.
I'm leaving a possible solution with Google Sheets below, as a replacement for the /recording webhook. Import it from clipboard into your editor and see the comment node for instructions :)
