Request for Assistance in Fixing WhatsApp Business API Template Error

I encountered an error while attempting to send a WhatsApp template message via the WhatsApp Business API, and I would appreciate guidance on resolving it. Below are the details:

Error Description
[400] [310000] (313000B) Required parameters in missing business Button at index 1 of type copy_code; returned as non-empty parameter coupon_code.

Issue Summary

  • The API expects a button parameter of type copy_code at index 1, but the request contains coupon_code instead.
  • This mismatch is causing the template message to fail with a 400 Bad Request error.

Steps I’ve Taken

  1. Verified the template structure in WhatsApp Business Manager.
  2. Checked the API request parameters for consistency with the template.

Request for Help

Could someone assist me with:

  1. Correctly structuring the API request to match the template’s expected parameters?
  2. Clarifying whether I should modify the template approval or the API payload?
  3. Any best practices to avoid similar issues in the future?

Thank you in advance for your support!

Best regards,
