WhatsApp bubble messages

In Waflow, bubble messages refer to circular videos sent via WhatsApp. This is the format that the user sees as a circular video within the chat.

Actual size #

To send it, use one of these commands along with a video attachment:

#circlevideo
#ptv
!circlevideo!
!circlevod!

How to use it #

  1. attach a video
  2. Type one of the commands above in the message
  3. Send it from the stream that appears on WhatsApp

If everything is correct, Waflow will send the video as a circular bubble.

Simple example #

Message:

#ptv

Attached: a video file.

What the customer sees #

  • a video shared in the chat
  • a presentation that looks more like a WhatsApp video note
  • a more visually engaging format than a traditional rectangular video

Important notes #

  • It only works with video attachments.
  • The video cannot be larger than 20 MB.
  • If no valid video is attached, it will not be sent as a pop-up.
  • The additional text following the command should not be used as the main caption; in this case, the attached video is what matters.

Where it works #

It works for WhatsApp messages processed by Waflow, whether the accounts are connected to GoHighLevel or Chatwoot.

Recommendation #

Use this format only when you actually want to send a circular video. If you want a message with visible buttons or actions, that falls under the interactive messages documentation, not bubble messages.
