WhatsApp Business Platform

Embedded Signup default flow

Updated: Jun 28, 2026
Embedded signup v2 will be deprecated on October 15, 2026. Migrate your integration to v4 before that date to avoid disruption. See Versions for the full upgrade path.
This document describes the default screens that the Embedded Signup Cloud API flow presents to your business customers as they navigate the flow. If you inject pre-filled data, you can pre-fill some of these screens. You can also bypass many of them entirely. Pre-filling data reduces the likelihood of errors and streamlines onboarding for your business customers. This document describes the UI flow for the latest version, v4.
