Q: Inquiry on API Message Thread Integration with Chatflow in WhatsApp
Hello AnyChat Support Team,
I am using AnyChat's API to send WhatsApp messages to leads. When I send a message via the API, it successfully delivers it and creates a new thread. However, this thread appears to be disconnected from the Chatflow automation.
As a result, when the lead replies, the Chatflow automation does not trigger, and the conversation does not continue via the intended Chatflow.
I would like to know if there is an official or recommended way to link a thread created via API message to a specific Chatflow, so that replies from leads automatically trigger the Chatflow and continue the conversation seamlessly.
If linking via API is not natively supported, are there any workarounds or recommended integrations (for example, through webhooks or other automation tools) to achieve this?
Thanks

You need to pass chatflow=1 with your API request.
But the channel must be initially connected to the chatflow.
