MacroDroid can't directly just send whatsapp message. You need imitate user by UI interaction which is clunky and unreliable way to send a message, or you can use MacroDroid with Notification Listener plugin to respond to whatsapp messages throught notification. (If someone sends you a message, you got notification and MacroDroid is able to reply with text throught that notification). Sorry, but these are just limitations of android and real world.

With WhatsApp it's not so complicated!

First use 'Open web site' action with this URL: https://wa.me/ international_phone_number_without_plus_sign/?text=Your_message

Then, use UI interaction to click on the 'send button'. Don't forget to put a wait action before clicking (some 500ms should be enough).

True, true... What Dm proposes should be more realiable and open chat directly with text already written...

What exactly are you doing ? What notification ? (There is a WhatsApp send action if you didn't know)
1- I added UI Interaction to actions
2- click on configure
3- select "Click"
4- select " Identify in app"
5-click on ok
6- i navigate to WhatsApp Business app
7- i typed a test text and clicked on "Identify UI Control" notification.
8- "now touch the UI Control" appeared
9- I touched "send" button.
10- the message was sent but nothing occur, the action doesn't recognized by macrodroid
please note it recognizes any others touch like the "voice button"

i use "send Intend" and "UI Interaction", because "WhatsApp send action" also doesn't auto send the text (it wrote the message successfully but doesn't send it)

Send WhatsApp Message
This option also has a problem, often the text is pasted but not sent. There is no way to know whether or not the message was sent in the automation.
It needs to have a success return as a variable, so it could repeat the process in case of failure to send.

How to get the event for successful send?
