Use this function to send templates in bulk to your customers. The API will handle delivery to recipients from a column-based file. Sending templates in bulk allows you to send a predefined template with different values related to each customer, so you can select dynamic information from a source such as a file, to automate and send your campaign easily.

Template guidelines

The source file must be created following these specifications:

File format

Only files with the .CSV extension are supported. The first row of the file must define the column names (header). Follow these rules for the header:

Avoid blank spaces in column names.
Do not use special characters or punctuation marks (e.g., !, $, %, &, *, etc.).
Use only letters, numbers, and underscores (_) if necessary.

Correct: phone_number, customer_name, order_amount Incorrect: phone number, customer-name!, order#amount

First column

The first column must contain the phone numbers of the recipients. It is mandatory to include the international code without the + symbol (for example, for a number in Ecuador, write PHONE_NUMBER).

Remaining columns

The other columns will be used for the dynamic values of the parameters (template personalization).

Example

If your template contains the following content:

Your order {{1}} for a total of {{2}} is confirmed. The expected delivery is {{3}}.

The CSV file would be:

phone_number	param_1	param_2	param_3
PHONE_NUMBER	A12345	$250.00	December 1
PHONE_NUMBER_2	B67890	$100.50	December 2
PHONE_NUMBER_3	C22345	$50.00	December 3

The CSV file must be encoded in UTF-8.

Send HSM from file

POST https://api.jelou.ai/v1/hsm/file

File upload options

There are two ways to provide the CSV file with recipient information:

Using a public URL: You can provide the URL to the CSV file that is publicly available. In this case, the request body must be in JSON format.
Uploading the file: Alternatively, you can attach the CSV file directly to the request. In this case, the request body must be in multipart/form-data format.

Body parameters

Property	Type	Description	Required
campaignName	string	Name assigned to the campaign being sent.	Yes
elementName	string	Template name. Must have approved status by WhatsApp.	Yes
botId	string	Unique identifier of the bot sending the template.	Yes
params	array	Array of objects with the parameter number and the corresponding CSV column. If the template has no parameters, the array must be empty.	Yes
type	string	Template type: `text`, `image`, `document`, `video`. Defaults to `text`.	No
mediaUrl	string	Public URL of the media file. Required for image, video, or document templates.	Conditional
fileUrl	string	Public URL of the CSV file. Required if the file is not uploaded directly.	Conditional
file	file	Attached CSV file. Required if `fileUrl` is not used.	Conditional
buttonPayloads	array	Array of objects for quick reply buttons with workflows.	No
actions	object	Actions related to the template.	No
scheduledAt	date	Date and time in UTC when the campaign will be sent.	No
