Jelou Apps is a WhatsApp number provided by Jelou that lets you share and test your conversational workflows and agents without needing to connect your own WhatsApp number. In the upper-right corner of the canvas, click Share to open the panel and share the latest version. What you see depends on whether your project has auto-publish enabled.

​
With auto-publish enabled

When auto-publish is enabled, the panel shows your project’s link and QR code directly, ready to share.
  • Link (jlu.ai): click the URL to copy it to the clipboard. You can also hold Shift or Ctrl while clicking to open it directly in a new tab.
  • Project code (XXX-XXX): unique per-project identifier that users can send to the Jelou Apps number to start a flow.
  • QR code: scanning it opens WhatsApp with the project code already pre-filled, ready to send.

​
With auto-publish disabled

When auto-publish is disabled, the panel shows two tabs: Public and Private. The Public tab generates a link and a project code that anyone can use to test your workflow directly in Jelou Apps.
1

Publish the link

If this is your first time sharing, click Publish & Share. If you already have published versions, the button will say Publish Public Link.
2

Copy the link or QR

Once published you will see:
  • Link (jlu.ai): click the URL to copy it to the clipboard. You can also hold Shift or Ctrl while clicking to open it directly in a new tab.
  • Project code (XXX-XXX): unique per-project identifier that users can send to the Jelou Apps number to start a flow.
  • QR code: scanning it opens WhatsApp with the project code already pre-filled, ready to send.

Share with your team

Send the link or QR to stakeholders, QA, or anyone who needs to test the flow. They do not need a Jelou account.
Click Unpublish inside the Public tab. The link will stop working immediately.
Revoking the link is irreversible. If you need to share again, you will need to generate a new link.

​
Private mode

The Private tab lets you add specific WhatsApp numbers for controlled testing directly in the real channel.
1

Enter the number

Type the number in international format (e.g. +593991234567) and click Add. The system will validate that it is a valid number.
2

The user receives access

The system will publish your project if there are pending changes and start a WhatsApp session. The user will receive a message to begin the interaction.
Private testing requires your project to have a WhatsApp channel configured. If you don’t have one, see the WhatsApp activation guide.

​
Connect your own WhatsApp

Jelou Apps is ideal for testing and sharing your projects quickly. When you are ready to operate in production, you can connect your own WhatsApp number. By doing so, anyone who writes to your number will interact directly with your project — you no longer need Jelou Apps or the access code.
