Configuring WSP (Verloop)

Following are the steps that will enable you to add the WhatsApp Service Provider to the list of WSPs offered by WebEngage.

Step 1: Add WhatsApp Service Provider (WSP)

Click the Add WhatsApp Service Provider or Plus icon on the top or click on the banner of the WSP at the bottom. In doing so, you will be prompted by a configuration modal. Select Verloop from the first dropdown, WhatsApp Service Provider.

Step 2: Configuration Name

Adding a name enables you to identify the appropriate WSP for a campaign while creating it. This comes in handy, especially when you have multiple accounts with the same WSP.

Step 3: Add WhatsApp Business Number

Kindly specify the verified phone number that you'll be using to send all your WhatsApp campaigns in this field.

Step 4: Add Username & Password

Navigate to your Verloop dashboard to find your publicApiKey, add it in the configuration modal and click Add WSP. Please connect with your Infobip Account Manager for further assistance.

Step 5: Add Headers

To configure Verloop you will have to add the location where your account is located as shown below:

Kindly add Header1 as clientId and Header2 as callback. You can get the details for the same from your Verloop dashboard.

🚧

Important

Kindly get in touch with Verloop support for further assistance regarding Header details.

For Verloop, kindly add a custom header with param callback. The value to be passed is either https://wt.webengage.com/tracking/events if your WebEngage dashboard is located in the US server or https://wt.ksa.webengage.com/tracking/events if your WebEngage dashboard is located in the Saudi Arabia server or https://wt.in.webengage.com/tracking/events if its located in the India server. This configuration is required for tracking DSN (Delivery Status Notification)

Find your account server location

If you are not sure which server your account is on, kindly check the URL of your dashboard:

For the US server, the URL is https://dashboard.webengage.com

For the Indian server, the URL is https://dashboard.in.webengage.com

For the Saudi Arabia server, the URL is https://dashboard.ksa.webengage.com

Step 6: Add WebEngage Webhook URL in Verloop Dashboard (Highly Recommended)

Adding the WebEngage Webhook in Verloop will enable us to receive delivery status notifications for each user. This includes campaign performance indicators like the message delivered, failed, and queued.

• As shown above, on clicking Add WSP, you will be prompted by a pop-up confirming that your WSP is ready to use.

• Copy the Webhook URL, add it to the relevant field in your Verloop dashboard, and click Save.
