Positus Architecture - WhatsApp Business API

You can integrate directly with the Positus API (above) or use a customer service platform such as Robbu’s Invenio, without building the integration yourself.
Production Token: Your token will be generated and provided by Positus; it grants access to all of your WhatsApp Business API numbers. The key will be provided after activation of each WhatsApp Business API number.Sandbox - Development Token: You can generate your token directly through http://studio.posit.us/.
