Send a message directly

Sends an outbound WhatsApp message directly.

The message is submitted to the WhatsApp Business API synchronously. Typically used for sending OTP and instant messages.

The response body field error.whatsappApiError is included if we tried to request the WhatsApp Business API and got an error response.

The WhatsApp Business API supports up to 80 messages per second (mps) per business phone number by default, and up to 1,000 mps by automatic upgrade. Throughput is inclusive of inbound and outbound messages and all message types.
