Sir I am using these code to send text message on whatsapp.

Code:

 Declare  Integer FindWindow In WIN32API String , String
Declare  Integer SetForegroundWindow In WIN32API Integer
Declare  Integer  ShowWindow  In WIN32API Integer , Integer
Declare Integer ShellExecute In shell32.Dll ;
	INTEGER hndWin, ;
	STRING cAction, ;
	STRING cFileName, ;
	STRING cParams, ;
	STRING cDir, ;
	INTEGER nShowWin

Local lt, lhwnd

cPhone=[9203000000000]
cMessage='How are you sir?'

cmd='whatsapp://send?phone=&cPhone&text=&cMessage'


=ShellExecute(0, 'open', cmd,'', '', 1)

Wait "" Timeout 3
lt = "Whatsapp"
lhwnd = FindWindow (0, lt)
If lhwnd!= 0 					
	SetForegroundWindow (lhwnd) 
	ShowWindow (lhwnd, 1)
	ox = Createobject ( "Wscript.Shell" )
	ox.sendKeys ( '{ENTER}' )
Else
	Messagebox ( "Whatsapp no activated!" )
Endif]

There is no issue.

But now I want to send PDF document or image on whatsapp

to do this, I visited these links

Link
Link

But could not found how to modify this line of code

Code:

cmd='whatsapp://send?phone=&cPhone&text=&cMessage'

I mean what to add in api string to send document?

Update:
While using codes from this link

https://docs.cmtelecom.com/en/api/business-messaging-api/1.0/index

I modified my string like this

Code:

mediaName="conversational-commerce"
mediaUri="[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cm.com/cdn/web/nl-nl/blog/conversational-commerce.jpg"[/URL]
mimeType= "image/jpg"
cmd='whatsapp://send?phone=&cPhone&media=&mediaName&Url=&mediaUri&type=mimeType'

but it still not work

Please help

I think your mimeType is not being expanded, to prevent this kind of confusion I would code it like this:

Code:

cmd='whatsapp://send?phone='+cPhone+'&media='+mediaName+'&Url='+mediaUri+'&type='+mimeType

After a very long study and experiments, I have finalized these codes to send text message + image file to WHATSAPP.

Please give a try and send me feedback.

You will have to install whatsapp on you system first.

	m.ext=Justext(m.xpict)

	If !Inlist(m.ext,"PNG","JPG","BMP","GIF","TIF")
		Messagebox('Please select only images')
	Endif

Else
	Messagebox('Image not selected')
	Return
Endif


Local m.oo
m.oo=Newobject("image")
m.oo.Picture=m.xpict
Local lnWidth,lnHeight
lnWidth=m.oo.Width
lnHeight=m.oo.Height

*Save the bitmap file to the clipboard

nBitmap=0
hbm=0
GdipCreateBitmapFromFile(Strconv(m.xpict+0h00,5),@nBitmap)
GdipCreateHBITMAPFromBitmap(nBitmap,@hbm,0)
lhBmp = CopyImage(hbm, 0, m.lnWidth, m.lnHeight,0) &&resize if
If OpenClipboard(0)!= 0
	EmptyClipboard()
	SetClipboardData(CF_BITMAP, lhBmp)
	CloseClipboard()
