FAQ

Questions about List Templates.

What does the List Templates action do in WhatsApp Business?

Lists approved message templates on your WhatsApp Business Account with their names, languages, and components. Use to populate a template picker before sending.

What inputs does List Templates require?

List Templates has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if WhatsApp Business returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does List Templates support batch operations?

Yes. Run List Templates inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles WhatsApp Business's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
