How to add buttons to templates?

Creating call-to-action buttons in a template

WhatsApp allows us to create templates with Call-To-Actions (CTA) buttons. A maximum of 7 buttons can be created in a template (4 CTAs and 3 quick replies)

If you are looking for info on how to create a template on WATI, refer to here.

1. Visit Website

We support the use of 2 visit website CTAs in your templates:

Button text refers to the text display on the button, with maximum 25 characters, for example "Click here for more info".

Either a static or dynamic link can be inserted.

For dynamic link, WhatsApp does not allow a fully dynamic link, so it follows the format like

https://www.example.com/{{dynamic_variable_here}}, or

https://www.youtube.com/channel/{{youtubelink}},

only the last part of the URL can be dynamic by putting a variable with small case letters, numbers or underscore at the end.

https://www.example.com/{{not_allowed}}/homepage -> A variable at the start or in the middle of the URL is not allowed by Whatsapp.
