Hi there! I have a suggestion that could improve WhatsApp messaging.

Would it be possible to add “document” and “video” objects to the “header” section, similar to the reference provided at [https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/reference/messages#header-object](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/reference/messages#header-object)

This would allow for the direct attachment of PDFs and videos in WhatsApp header messages, rather than just text and images (as per the current implementation).

Adding PDF in template does not enable dynamic attachment of PDFs. My use is for attaching customer invoices.

I have implemented this by directly implementing the WA APIs though.
