Sending Click-to-WhatsApp Events to Meta Conversion API

This integration allows the Virtual Assistant to send event data from Facebook Click-to-WhatsApp (CTWA) ads to Meta Conversion API (CAPI). This enables more accurate conversion tracking and optimizes ad campaigns based on real user interaction data.

⚙ Before configuring event sending, make sure to request the required data, the Endpoint to which the events should be sent, and the cURLs for each event through a Service Request.

Below, you’ll find the events compatible with Conversion API for Business Messaging (Click-to-WhatsApp) that you can send from Studio to CAPI for campaign tracking and analysis, along with best practices for an effective implementation.

▶ Available Events

Details of the events compatible with Meta Conversion API:

➡ Purchase: A purchase attributed to the conversation has been completed.

➡ LeadSubmitted: The user submitted contact information (for example, completed a form within the chat).

➡ InitiateCheckout: The user started a payment process.

✅ Best Practices

Once you have all the required data, follow these recommendations to ensure a stable integration and accurate event measurement:

  • Currency and Value: always include both fields (currency and value) in events containing monetary data.

  • Messaging-Only Events: report only actions that occurred within the WhatsApp conversation (web/app conversions must be sent through other CAPI channels).

  • Validation: Verify event ingestion in Events Manager corresponding to your dataset_id.

  • Deduplication: use ctwa_clid as a unique key if necessary.

  • Error Handling:

    • If the error error_subcode: 2804132 appears, it means that the dataset_id is not linked to the WABA.

    • Create or verify the dataset with the correct waba_id, and update the channel configuration.
