FAQ from Whatsapp Business Mcp

What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard that lets AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT interact with external tools and data sources.

How do I get Meta API credentials?

Go to Meta for Developers, create or select your app, navigate to WhatsApp > API Setup, and copy your access token, WABA ID, and phone number ID.

What transport modes does the server support?

The server supports stdio (local clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code), SSE (legacy remote), and streamable-http (Claude.ai, ChatGPT, newer MCP clients).

Can I pass credentials per request instead of via environment variables?

Yes. For HTTP transports you can send a Bearer token (base64-encoded JSON with access_token, phone_number_id, waba_id) or X-Meta-* headers. Environment variables are used as fallback.

Does this server work with ChatGPT?

Yes, but only as a remotely hosted MCP server via streamable-http. ChatGPT does not support local stdio mode. The server must be publicly accessible over HTTPS.
