Overview page contents

The overview shows, from top to bottom:

  • The onboarding checklist, when the agent is not fully set up.
  • A summary of the phone's eligibility status.
  • A list of configured agents on this phone.
  • Header actions: Show QR, Export config, and Import config. See Config export and import.

Share a QR to start a chat

The Show QR button in the overview header generates a QR code for the current phone number. Anyone who scans it lands on https://wa.me/{phone number}, which opens WhatsApp on their device and starts a new chat with your business number, no contact save required.

  1. Click Show QR at the top-right of the overview page.
  2. A dialog opens with a scannable QR code, the full wa.me URL below it, and two actions.
  3. Point a phone camera at the QR to test that it opens WhatsApp.
  4. Click Download PNG to save the QR as an image you can paste into flyers, receipts, storefront signage, email footers, or slide decks.
  5. Click the copy button next to the URL to grab the link for a website button or a social post.

The QR is generated entirely in your browser, nothing about your phone number is sent to a third-party QR service.
