Manage your live WhatsApp Business profile — the profile photo, about text, description, address, email, and website(s) shown to customers on WhatsApp. This is different from the Meta Profile Request API: the Profile Request API submits a request to get a new profile verified, while this API reads and updates the profile of an already-connected WhatsApp Business account.
Prerequisites
These endpoints require your account to already have WhatsApp connected (Meta Cloud API, CRM, or Pinbot). Your account type and connection details are already configured on our side — you don't need to send anything extra to specify which provider you're on; just call the endpoint and it's handled automatically.
If your account isn't connected, or isn't one of the supported types, requests fail with a 422 — see Error Responses below.
Authentication
Required on all endpoints below. Send a JWT as a Bearer token:
Authorization: Bearer <jwt_token>
{{base_url}} = https://wa20.nuke.co.in/v6/api
1. Get Business Profile
Fetches your current live WhatsApp Business profile details directly from the provider (Meta / Pinbot).

|---|---|
Authorization | Bearer <jwt_token> |
Example Request
curl --location '{{base_url}}/account/business-profile' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {{bearer_token}}'

}

2. Update Profile Photo
Uploads and applies a new photo to your live WhatsApp Business profile.
Endpoint
POST {{base_url}}/account/business-profile/photo
Headers
| Header | Value |
|---|---|
Authorization | Bearer <jwt_token> |
Content-Type | multipart/form-data (set automatically by your HTTP client) |
Body (form-data)
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
channel | text | No | Channel identifier accepted with the request. |
file | file | Yes | The image file to set as your profile photo. |
Example Request
curl --location '{{base_url}}/account/business-profile/photo' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {{bearer_token}}' \
--form 'channel="whatsapp"' \
--form 'file=@"/path/to/photo.jpg"'
Example Response — 200 OK
{
"message": "Profile photo updated successfully",
"data": {
"success": true
}
}
The exact shape of
datamirrors whatever the underlying provider (Meta / Pinbot) returns for the apply step — treat it as provider passthrough rather than a fixed schema.
How It Works
Under the hood, the photo is uploaded and applied in three steps against your connected WhatsApp account. If any step fails, the specific error is surfaced in the response — you don't need to do anything differently in Postman, just send the request as shown above.
3. Update Business Profile
Updates one or more fields on your live WhatsApp Business profile. Only the fields you send are updated.
Endpoint
PUT {{base_url}}/account/business-profile
Headers
| Header | Value |
|---|---|
Content-Type | application/json |
Authorization | Bearer <jwt_token> |
Body Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
about | string | No | The "About" status text. |
address | string | No | Business address. |
description | string | No | Business description. |
email | string | No | Business contact email. |
vertical | string | No | Business category/vertical. |
websites | array of strings | No | Business website URL(s). |
channel | string | No | Channel identifier accepted with the request. |
Note: at least one profile field (
about,address,description,vertical, orwebsites) should be sent — sending none will still call the provider but with nothing to change beyond the requiredmessaging_productvalue.
Example Request
{
"about": "Hello there! I am using WhatsApp.",
"description": "Official WhatsApp Business Account",
"address": "123 Business Road",
"email": "[email protected]",
"websites": ["https://www.business.com"]
}
curl --location --request PUT '{{base_url}}/account/business-profile' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {{bearer_token}}' \
--data '{
"about": "Hello there! I am using WhatsApp.",
"description": "Official WhatsApp Business Account",
"address": "123 Business Road",
"email": "[email protected]",
"websites": ["https://www.business.com"]
}'
Example Response — 200 OK
{
"message": "Business profile updated successfully",
"data": {
"success": true
}
}
Error Responses
These apply across all three endpoints unless noted otherwise:
| Status | Message | Endpoint(s) | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
404 | WhatsApp account not found in wati table | Get / Update Business Profile | Your account doesn't have a WhatsApp connection set up yet. |
404 | No WhatsApp account configured for this user | Update Profile Photo | Your account doesn't have a WhatsApp connection set up yet. |
422 | WhatsApp credentials are not configured | All three | Your WhatsApp connection is missing required credentials — contact support to fix your account setup. |
422 | Business profile is only supported for Meta Cloud API, CRM and Pinbot accounts | All three | Your account's connected provider doesn't support this feature. |
422 | Could not resolve phone_number_id from account URL | All three | Your account's WhatsApp connection isn't configured correctly — contact support. |
422 | Pinbot account is missing its Business Manager ID (bmid) | All three | Your account setup is incomplete — contact support. |
4xx / 422 | Provider-specific error message | All three | The upstream WhatsApp provider rejected the request — the message explains why. |
Notes
- These endpoints act directly on your live, already-connected WhatsApp Business account — changes here take effect immediately, unlike the Profile Request API which submits a request for approval.
- The
channelfield accepted on Update Profile Photo and Update Business Profile is recorded with the request; you don't need to configure anything else to tell us which provider you're on — that's already set up on your account. - If a request fails partway through Update Profile Photo, retry the same request — it's safe to call again.
