First you will need to go on app.crisp.chat and then Plugins, and finally search "WhatsApp"
If this is the first time you are connecting your Whatsapp number, or you are moving from the Whatspp Business mobile app, click "Connect a new Whatsapp Business Account" and then the "Connect to WhatsApp" button to continue.
If you are migrating a number from an existing Whatsapp Business account, please follow the guide from here.
You will be then redirected to Facebook. During the setup process you :

Create or Select a WhatsApp Phone Number
Pick your WhatsApp account in the list
You can now use your WhatsApp account. If your number is not connected, click "Connect number", you can then click on the green Whatsapp button to view your QR code to send a test message from WhatsApp to the WhatsApp phone number associated with Crisp.
The migration process allows you to transfer your registered phone number from one WhatsApp Business Account (WABA) to another, which is necessary if you are moving from your current Whatsapp Business Solution Provider (BSP) to a new BSP - in this instance, Crisp will serve as your new BSP. With this, you can switch to a new BSP while retaining your phone number and any existing message templates. Once the migration is finalized, your display name, quality rating, messaging limits, Official Business Account status, and any previously approved high-quality message templates will be seamlessly transferred to the new BSP.
If you are migrating an existing number from the Official Whatsapp App, you will need to delete the number and connect the number as a new number. For more information click here
Message templates
All high quality message templates from the previous WABA will be duplicated and automatically approved in your new WABA as long as the destination WABA can accommodate new templates. Any existing message templates in the new WABA will not be affected. Low quality, rejected, or pending templates from the previous WABA will not be duplicated and migrated.
In the case the new WABA cannot accommodate all of the new templates, an attempt to migrate as many templates as possible will be made until the new WABA'S template limit has been reached. Templates that could not be migrated must be re-created and submitted for approval if they are to be used by the destination WABA.
Billing Migration
Messages sent before migration are charged to the previous BSP. Messages sent after migration are charged to the new BSP - in this instance, Crisp. Messages sent from the previous BSP, and are not delivered before migration, are still charged to the previous BSP when they get delivered.
As mentioned above, Business phone numbers in use with the WhatsApp Business App cannot be migrated using this process. The number will need to be deleted from the app and connected as a new number.
Message and chat history are not migrated with this process.
The number must have the ability to receive a SMS or Voice calls as a 6 digit confirmation code will be sent to the number during the migration.
Two-factor authentication for the number must be disabled before continuing. If you do not have access to disable the 2FA on the number, you should contact your previous provider to do this for you.
The new WABA must be owned by the same Facebook business as the previous WABA. This means the Facebook Business ID must be identical for both WABAs. You can find your Facebook Business ID here
