Troubleshooting: Why I can not send a message out?

    • As per HubSpot's policy, without HubSpot Integration permission, Cooby cannot be authorized and won't have the necessary permissions to assist in sending messages directly from HubSpot.

  • WhatsApp Web is enabled in your browser.

    • Cooby sends messages through your WhatsApp Web. If your WhatsApp Web tab isn't open, Cooby won't be able to locate the platform to send your message.

  • You are logged into WhatsApp Web.

    • As mentioned earlier, if you have the WhatsApp Web page open but aren't logged in, Cooby won't be able to identify the sender and therefore cannot successfully send the message.

    • To utilize this service, you'll need to install the Cooby extension, which offers this feature

  • You are logged into Cooby.

    • Alongside installing Cooby, make sure to log in to your Cooby account to access the full messaging functionality.
