Hey, Im trying to create a connected account for WhatsApp, when im calling the initiate call (python sdk version 0.8.10). I'm getting the following error: Failed to initiate integration for xxxx: Error code: 400 - {'error': {'message': 'Missing required fields: generic_id', 'code': 608, 'status': 400, 'request_id': 'f992634808844a79be7a1fa5a1094e7d', 'suggested_fix': '', 'errors': []}} I cannot find any reference to the generic_id property, can you please assist?

Hey @ron7147, you can pass the
generic_id
in
config.val
while initiating a connection. The
generic_id
is actually your WABA ID. —  WhatsApp Business Account ID. You can find this by calling GET /me/businesses then GET /{business_id}/owned_whatsapp_business_accounts with your access token.
