The advanced way to connect: your own Meta app, a system-user token and four values pasted in. For a number or Page that already runs through an app of yours, or that Connect with Meta cannot reach.
- Connect WhatsApp with your own Meta appThe advanced route — from a Meta developer account to a live bot, with the four values you need and the one step everybody misses.
- Create your Meta app and business portfolioThe developer account, the business portfolio, and the one app all three channels attach to.
- Add and verify your phone numberTest number or your own, what the phone number ID actually is, and the limits before business verification.
- Generate a permanent tokenThe system user token, its three permissions, and the one dropdown that decides whether it still works tomorrow.
- Connect Messenger with your own Meta appThe advanced route — the same three values Instagram needs, one webhook subscription of its own, and the Page-subscription step Meta never mentions.
- Connect Instagram through a Facebook PageThe advanced route — three values, a Page in the middle, your own Meta app, and the one field we deliberately do not ask you for.
