Introduction
In this c# code snippet, you learn how to send a WhatsApp API using c-sharp, to send a text message, WhatsApp Templates, media, interactive buttons, lists, products … etc, Alvochat account is required to run the following codes. Create an Account if you don’t have one.
Initially, you must make sure that the RestSharp library last Ver: 108.0.1 is ready because we will use this library in this article to send Whatsapp messages to the Alvochat Gateway.
