Case Study
1. Background
Sales and support teams often rely on WhatsApp to reach out to customers, especially in industries like real estate, e-commerce, and services. However, initiating a chat manually by copying numbers or creating WhatsApp URLs is tedious, repetitive, and prone to error.
2. Challenge
Users faced the following issues:
-
Manual effort needed to create WhatsApp URLs.
-
No built-in button or feature in CRM to message leads directly on WhatsApp.
-
Limited to using phone or mobile number fields—often without validation for country codes.
3. Solution: WhatsApp URL Generator Extension
This custom-built Zoho CRM extension solves the problem by:
-
Providing a dedicated button on the Lead Information Page to generate a WhatsApp message link.
-
Allowing users to send a WhatsApp message directly by clicking a "Send Message on WhatsApp" button.
-
Enabling users to copy the chat URL and share it via other platforms (email, SMS, etc.).
-
Supporting message generation from either Phone or Mobile fields (only if they include a valid country code).
-
Displaying an error if the country code is missing—ensuring message delivery accuracy.
Note: Reusing or storing message templates is not supported at this time. Users must enter the desired message each time they generate a new link.
