How to run the playbook


Want to save your WhatsApp contacts into your sales or personal tracking systems?

This playbook will save you some copy/pasting by scraping a WhatsApp Web contact getting it's profile information into a Google Sheet.

To run this, go to an opened WhatsApp Web conversation and run the playbook.

It'll ask you to input a Google Sheet. You can select an already created Google Sheet, or create a new one with the "Create a new Google Sheet with Name" command.

The output data is different depending on the type of profile:

  • Known and saved contact
    Gets the "phone", "about", "label", "name", and "image" fields.
  • Business contact
    Gets the "business_account_phone", "business_account_name", "label", "about", and "image" fields.
  • Unknown contact
    Gets the "unsaved_name", "unsaved_phone", "label" and "image" fields.

On the Google Sheet, phone numbers might appear as "ERROR" fields. That happens they contain a "+" sign and are formatted as formulas. You can remove the symbol or add a space to get the text.
