Über dieses Produkt
WhatsApp Business for Dynamics 365 CRM is a build-to-order extension that makes WhatsApp a first-class channel inside your Dynamics environment — no tab-switching, no copy-paste, no separate inbox. ECOSIRE designs, builds, installs, and supports it as a per-tenant AL extension deployed directly to your Business Central / Dataverse-connected environment. This is not an instant AppSource download: we scope your exact provider, templates, and record types, then engineer and hand over a working solution.
The core is a page extension that adds a live two-way chat panel to your contact, lead, and case records. Outbound and inbound messages are stored in custom AL tables tied to the record, so every conversation is part of the customer's history. Connectivity runs through your choice of gateway — the Meta Cloud API (WhatsApp Business Platform) or Twilio — wired via outbound HttpClient calls and a secured inbound webhook endpoint that resolves the sender's phone number back to the correct CRM record.
Approved WhatsApp message templates are managed in a dedicated setup page, with placeholders bound to live CRM fields so a single template merges contact name, order number, or case reference at send time. Event subscribers and an optional Power Automate / job queue layer fire messages on triggers you define — a new case, a status change, an appointment reminder — without anyone opening the record. Media, documents, and emoji are fully supported, including attaching files straight from the CRM record.
Everything ships behind dedicated permission sets, with API credentials held in isolated setup tables and message logs auditable per user. You own the extension on your tenant; ECOSIRE provides the warranty period, updates, and support described below.

Häufig gestellte Fragen zu WhatsApp Business for Dynamics 365 CRM
How long until it's live, and how is it delivered?
This is a build-to-order extension, not an instant AppSource download. After a short scoping call to confirm your gateway (Meta Cloud API or Twilio), record types, templates, and triggers, typical delivery is around one working week depending on the number of automations and integrations. We build the AL extension, install it as a per-tenant extension on your own Dynamics 365 / Business Central environment, configure your credentials and templates, and run a knowledge-transfer session before handover.
What do I need to provide before you start?
You'll need a WhatsApp Business account with an approved phone number through either the Meta Cloud API (WhatsApp Business Platform) or a Twilio WhatsApp sender, plus administrator access to the target Dynamics 365 / Business Central environment so we can deploy the per-tenant extension and configure the inbound webhook. We'll guide you through provisioning if any of these aren't set up yet. WhatsApp message templates must be submitted to and approved by Meta — we help you draft and structure them.
Do I get ongoing support and updates after delivery?
Yes. Every build includes a warranty period covering defects in the delivered extension at no extra charge. Beyond that, ECOSIRE offers ongoing support and maintenance — adapting to Business Central platform updates, gateway API changes, new templates, or additional triggers — under a support agreement scoped to your needs. Because you own the extension on your tenant, you're never locked out; we simply remain available to maintain and extend it.
Can it run automated and event-triggered messages, not just manual chat?
Yes. Beyond the manual chat panel, we wire AL event subscribers and an optional job queue so messages fire on triggers you define — a new case, a stage change, an appointment reminder, an order confirmation. If you use the Power Platform, we can also dispatch messages from Power Automate flows on Dataverse events, so automation lives wherever your team already builds it.
Is it secure and properly permissioned?
Yes. API credentials, phone-number IDs, and webhook verification tokens are held in isolated, secured setup tables — never hard-coded. Access is governed by dedicated permission sets so you control who can read conversations, send messages, and manage templates or credentials. The inbound webhook validates the gateway's verification token, and all messages are logged per user for auditability. The extension follows Business Central per-tenant extension and AppSource technical conventions even though it's installed directly rather than via the marketplace.
