# Prepare a WhatsApp blasting with AI (you send it)

Your AI agent can do the fiddly part of a WhatsApp blasting — checking who it will reach and writing a clean draft — while you keep the one decision that matters: whether to actually send it.

## Why it's two steps

This is a safety design, not a limitation. The agent **prepares** the blasting; a **person clicks Send**. That way a message never goes out to your customers because of a misunderstanding — you always see the final draft and the recipient count first, and sending stays a deliberate human click. The agent simply cannot press **Send** for you.

## Step 1 — Preview the audience first

Before you write a word, ask the agent who the blasting would reach. For example:

> "How many contacts have the label *ramadan-2025*? Show me a few."

You'll get a **count** and a small sample, so you know the reach *before* you commit to a draft. Adjust the label or filter until the audience looks right.

## Step 2 — Ask the agent to draft the blasting

Now ask it to build the draft. Tell it four things:

1. A **title** — for your own reference; customers don't see it
2. The **message** you want to send
3. The **inbox** to send from
4. The **audience** — for example, contacts with a certain label

For example:

> "Draft a WhatsApp blasting titled *Ramadan promo*, from the *Mampu WhatsApp* inbox, to everyone labelled *ramadan-2025*, with this message: …"

The agent saves it as a **draft** in your account. Nothing has been sent.

## Step 3 — Review the draft in Blasting

Open **Blasting** in your dashboard and find the draft the agent made. Check that:

* The **message** reads exactly how you want it
* The **recipient count** matches what you expected in Step 1
* The right **inbox** is selected

## Step 4 — Click Send yourself

When you're happy, click **Send**. This is the step the agent can't do — it's yours on purpose. The blasting goes out only after *your* click.

## Before you send a WhatsApp blast

WhatsApp has its own rules, so a blast needs two things in place first:

* An **eligible WhatsApp inbox** connected to your account
* An **approved WhatsApp template** for the message

If either is missing, set it up in the dashboard — connecting channels and inboxes is still a dashboard job, not something the agent can do yet.

## If the agent says it "can't" or "is missing a permission"

Blasting work needs the **Draft blasting** permission on the key. If the agent can't see or draft blasting, add that permission in **Settings → API & Agents** — or leave it off on purpose if you'd rather keep blasting fully hands-off. See *What your AI agent can and can't do*.
