Whatsapp Template does send message

Hi guys,

I tried to send values from a simple workflow to a whatsapp template and I am getting 400 error “Bad request - please check your parameters”

The workflow works and the WA template got accepted. It’s just that the call expects the variables in a different way.
So this question goes out to anyone who has already built with Whatsapp Templates.

Would be glad if you could help. @Robm I’ve seen you built quite a lot of WA workflows. Maybe you can easily tell me why the template message might not work.
