WhatsUp Mind

Authentication

All agent endpoints use Bearer token authentication. Admin endpoints use the X-Admin-Key header.

Authorization: Bearer wha_your_api_key_here    (Agent endpoints)
X-Admin-Key: your_admin_key                    (Admin endpoints)

Polling for New Messages

WhatsUp Mind does not support webhooks. Agents must poll for new messages at regular intervals.

Recommended: Poll list_messages with the after parameter every 3 minutes. Use 1 minute for time-sensitive workflows. Never poll more frequently than every 30 seconds. Each poll is a fast local query — no external API calls are made.

curl -X POST https://srv13.whatsappmind.useminds.ai/api/mcp/call \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer wha_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool":"list_messages","arguments":{"limit":50,"after":"2026-03-29T10:00:00"}}'

Key Concepts

JID — WhatsApp identifier. Contacts: phone@s.whatsapp.net. Groups: id@g.us.
Phone numbers — Digits only with country code, no + or symbols. Example: 14155551234.
Pagination — Use limit and page (0-indexed) on list endpoints.
Dates — ISO-8601 format: 2026-03-29T10:30:00.
Multi-tenant — Each API key maps to one WhatsApp account.

MCP Protocol (SSE)

For MCP-native clients, connect via Server-Sent Events:

GET /sse

SSE transport endpoint. Requires Bearer auth. Returns a message endpoint URL for bidirectional communication.
