What Does This API Do? Given any **international phone number** (with **country code**, no `+` sign), the API returns: - **Number Validation** — Instantly check if a phone number is registered on WhatsApp (`exists: true/false` **boolean response**). - **Profile Picture / Avatar Fetch** — Retrieve the **profile picture** as a direct URL and as a **base64-encoded image**, ready to display or store. - **Image Metadata** — Get image size in bytes and download status for every request. - **Bulk Profile Lookup** — Query up to multiple **WhatsApp numbers** in a single POST request. Each number is processed independently — one failure won't block the rest. - **WhatsApp JID** — Get the internal WhatsApp identifier (JID) for each queried number. > **Use cases:** Lead enrichment, CRM verification, contact validation pipelines, KYC flows, customer support tools, **data pipeline** integrations, and more. --- ####
