I have tried using both the dashboard & cli but facing this issue. The api is hosted I can see the listening in port 3000 console log & it has messaged me in whatsapp as i wanted but the endpoints are not working !!

There is no issue with my code as there are no err logs + it works in render.com & locahost.

Hey, actually it is like sending invoices after billing in my software does that also shouldn't be running on railway ??

that itself is fine, as long as whatsapp isnt used in that scenario

Does railway allow any other medium such as sms, dicord ,mail etc....

for me to switch from whatsapp

sms, dicord ,mail

yes, yes, yes

reason being as to why whatsapp is a no go is because it does not use offical apis, thus it is a userbot

im sorry for assuming but i dont think you are using meta's offical api for whatsapp

Oh okay got it....

the three options you listed would all be perfect, since you can use offical apis to send messages through those methods

@Brody Can we deploy whatsapp bots in the paid plans ? If not could you please suggest any other alternatives.

  1. Tried cyclic.sh (My build is exceeding 250mb)
  2. render (A bit Expensive)....

what's app bots can not be deployed onto railway regardless of the plan, it is against the fair use policy
