Show: Whatsapp link
To convince a user to move a conversation from a web chat (web widget or PWA) to WhatsApp, the process needs to be as simple as possible. The user needs to actively grab their phone and open WhatsApp or open the WhatsApp app on their computer. The Show: Whatsapp link node variant can help.
On a desktop, it will show a QR code containing a link to the WhatsApp contact that is configured for this Bot. The user can either scan it with their device to open a WhatsApp conversation there, or click on the link to open the (web) app for WhatsApp on their desktop.
On a mobile device it will directly open the WhatsApp app and continue from there.
The link that is generated will include the configured WhatsApp number as well as the last user message, so the user won't need to retype their question.
