Once HubSpot is connected, your team can send an approved WhatsApp template straight from a HubSpot record, using a card called WhatsApp · Ciarem. On a contact it sends to that contact. On a company or a deal it sends to the contacts associated with it. HubSpot does not show the card on its own. A HubSpot admin adds it to your record views once, and from then on everyone who uses those views sees it.

Before you start

  • HubSpot is connected to Ciarem and its setup is finished. See HubSpot.
  • You have at least one connected WhatsApp number and one approved template.
  • You are a Super Admin in HubSpot. Only Super Admins can add an app’s card to record views.

Messages sent from the card are real WhatsApp messages. They are charged to your WhatsApp wallet like any other template. See WhatsApp costs and templates.

Send to a company’s or a deal’s contacts

On a company or a deal, the card lists the associated contacts under Who receives it, all ticked. Untick anyone who should not get the message, then click Send to N selected.
  • A contact shown greyed out can’t receive this template. The row says what is missing, for example a phone number.
  • Contacts that are not synced to Ciarem are not listed. A note under the list tells you how many.
  • After sending, the card shows how many messages were sent, delivered, read and failed.
