So I have a workflow that is supposed to send out whatsapp templates using the http request node and the whatsapp api, the workflow basically downloads the file from google drive and uploads it on the whatsapp upload media node, the id it outputs is then used in the whatsapp api http request node so it can recognize the id and send it on whatsapp. But my problem is this works perfectly fine for documents and images but when it comes to templates with videos it just does not send the video on whatsapp even tho the http request node is successful. I am not able to pinpoint the error, ive tried everything.
