Workfront Integration with WhatsApp?

[MattWindsor]

Hi Community,

I'm 99.9% sure the answer is no, but is there a way to integrate Workfront proofing with WhatsApp? Instead of using the Workfront Mobile app? Or any other alternative?

Thanks
Matt

Looking at the whatsapp API documentation I would say you should be able to leverage it using fusion's HTTP modules

Hi Rafal,

Thanks for taking the time to look this up. I can't see from this the user would be able to collaborate with a Workfront Proof (comment, make a decision). Do you know? Ideally need to use WhatsApp or the Mobile App if possible.

Thanks

oh, this sounds like you want to get more sophisticated than I thought. Almost like having proofing app in whatsapp. 
that I cannot advise on, but my first thought is - if you want something so custom, why even bother with whatsapp as a proxy and why not build standalone custom app?
This would remove a lot of limitations

Cheers

Thanks again, ideally I'd go through the mobile app. but the question has been asked so I'm just investigating options at this stage.

Fingers crossed, they'll use the app.
