WhatsApp authentication — cancelled at your request

The setup was stopped immediately when you said "cancel". No review request was submitted to Meta and no WhatsApp credentials were stored. Here is exactly where things stand:

  • Meta developer app created: "KISS Sorcar Channel" (App ID 4613164228912044) with the WhatsApp product added, in Development mode.
  • Business portfolio created: "Koushik Sen Business" (business ID 878404888486318).
  • Blocker encountered: clicking Continue on the WhatsApp API Setup page failed with "Onboarding failure: Your business is prohibited from advertising, including app sharing." Meta placed an automatic restriction on the new portfolio, which blocks WhatsApp onboarding — no test number or access token can be issued until it is lifted.
  • Not completed: the "Request review" flow in Business Support Home was opened but dismissed without submitting anything when you cancelled. The WhatsApp channel remains unauthenticated.

If you want to resume later

  1. Go to Business Support Home and click Request review for "Koushik Sen Business" (usually a quick identity confirmation; reviews often clear within hours to a couple of days).
  2. Once the restriction is lifted, open the app's WhatsApp > API Setup page, click Continue, and copy the temporary access token and phone number ID.
  3. Ask me to finish authentication — I'll store the credentials for the whatsapp channel and verify the connection with a test API call.

Note: the first setup attempt crashed partway due to oversized screenshots in the automation; it was relaunched with downscaled screenshots and resumed cleanly from the same browser state before you cancelled.
