<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/5_zhGpI8bAw?si=8mV8L7zLDuFW6NU4" title="YouTube video player" className="w-full aspect-video rounded-xl" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen />

**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](/en/guides/getting-started/publicar-versiones#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**.

### Public link

The **Public** tab generates a link and a project code that anyone can use to test your workflow directly in **Jelou Apps**.

<Steps>
  <Step title="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**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

```txt theme={null}

```

| Parameter        | Description                                                                            |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `<jelou_number>` | **Jelou Apps** WhatsApp number.                                                        |
| `123-456`        | 6-digit code (three and three separated by a hyphen) that identifies your publication. |

#### Revoking the public link

Click **Unpublish** inside the Public tab. The link will stop working immediately.

<Warning>
  Revoking the link is irreversible. If you need to share again, you will need to generate a new link.
</Warning>

### Private mode

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

<Steps>
  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Private testing requires your project to have a WhatsApp channel configured. If you don't have one, see the <a href="/en/guides/channels/whatsapp">WhatsApp activation</a> guide.
</Note>

## 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](/en/guides/channels/whatsapp).

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.
