Ask "how many left?" in WhatsApp and get the number from Excel / Google Sheets.
1. Get a read-only key from Excel / Google Sheets
- Any WMS or ERP works if it can export stock to a spreadsheet. Paste it into Google Sheets and copy the ‘File › Share › Publish to web › CSV’ link.
- Columns named SKU (or item code), name and stock (or available / qty) are detected automatically.
- Edit the sheet and the next sync picks it up. Switch systems any time; the agent stays the same.
2. Connect WhatsApp
- Add WhatsApp to your Meta app and note the business number's Phone number ID.
- Business settings › System users: issue a non-expiring token with whatsapp_business_messaging.
- Free text only reaches people who messaged you in the last 24 hours. Get a utility template with one {{1}} variable approved and enter its name.
3. Paste both into Indigo Agent
Sign up with your email, choose the system and the messenger, and paste the values. The first check runs right away.
