Requirements

In the file checker_data.json you need to insert the token from your personal account Whapi.Cloud, as well as the number you want to check. It also shows the limits we recommend to use. daily_limit is how many checks are left, and refreshed_limit is how much of the limit is set on refresh.

How to Connect to Whapi.Cloud
Registration. The first step is to register on the Whapi.Cloud website and create an account. It's free and doesn't require you to enter a credit card. After registration you will immediately have access to a test channel with a small limitation. Wait for it to start (it usually takes about a minute). You will need to connect any phone for Whatsapp automation.

To connect your phone, use the QR code available when you click on your trial channel in your personal account. Then open WhatsApp on your mobile device, go to Settings -> Connected devices -> Connect device -> Scan QR code.

In the second and third steps, the service will ask you to customize the channel: write its name for your convenience, set webhooks, change settings. All these steps can be skipped, and we will come back to webhooks a little later. After launching, you will find in the center block under the information about limits, your API KEY, that is Token.
This token will be used to authenticate your API requests. Generally, it's added to the request headers as a Bearer Token or simply as a request parameter, depending on the API method you're using.

Happy coding! If you have any questions, feel free to write :)
