المحتويات
WhatsApp Messaging API — MCP Server
Send WhatsApp messages from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Create a session, scan a QR code, and send text, images and files — no Meta Business approval and no WhatsApp Business account required.
Wraps the WhatsApp Messaging API.
Quick start
- Get a free API key from RapidAPI — no credit card.
- Add this to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop:
claude_desktop_config.json):{ "mcpServers": { "whatsapp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "whatsapp-messaging-api-mcp"], "env": { "WHATSAPP_API_KEY": "your-rapidapi-key" } } } } - Restart the client. Ask it to create a WhatsApp session and show you the QR code.
Nothing to install or build — npx fetches the package on first run.
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
list_sessions | List all sessions on this API key |
create_session | Create a new session |
get_session_status | Check a session's current status |
get_qr_code | Get the QR code to authenticate a session |
request_pairing_code | Get an 8-digit pairing code instead of a QR |
check_contact_exists | Check if a phone number is on WhatsApp before sending |
send_text_message | Send a text message |
send_image | Send an image via URL |
send_file | Send a file (PDF, document) via URL |
Typical flow
create_session→get_qr_code→ scan with WhatsApp (Settings → Linked Devices)get_session_statusuntil it reportsWORKINGcheck_contact_exists, thensend_text_message/send_image/send_file
Sessions stay authenticated between runs, so steps 1-2 are one-time per number.
Configuration
| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
WHATSAPP_API_KEY | yes | Your RapidAPI key. The server exits on startup if it is missing. |
The key is read from the environment and sent only to the API host. It is never logged.
Local development
git clone https://github.com/jevil25/whatsapp-messaging-api-mcp.git
cd whatsapp-messaging-api-mcp
npm install
npm run dev # runs src/index.ts directly via tsx, no build step
npm run build # compile to dist/
npm test # boots the built server and drives a real MCP handshake
npm test needs no credentials — it passes a dummy key, which gets far enough to
list tools because nothing in the handshake makes an API call.
To point an MCP client at your local build, use "command": "node" with
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/dist/index.js"].
