Hi Max! Before using this node, you need to have a Meta Developers account ready to use. We will need two essential pieces of information from it: the Phone Number ID and the Access Token, and you will also need to add and approve the phone numbers that will send and receive the messages. The following steps explain how to do just that. in principle it is an easy process (and free of cost) to get it working, at least with a test number that the Meta Developers website will provide to you. For more advanced services please follow instructions from the Meta developers web site First thing, navigate to the Meta Developer website and log in with your usual user account. Then follow instructions and create a "developers account" (If you do not have it yet). Once you have your developers account, go to the "All Apps" section and proceed to "Create App". Select the "Other" option and choose a Business type app. , and select the option to integrate with the WhatsApp product. You can name your new App as you wish, but for clarity we recommend to call it "Mistika Workflows" (you can create other Apps for other type of usage...) Continue entering your account information to create your portfolio. Please note that it is important to use an available business domain. Note: During all these processes you will be asked to verify the phone numbers that you will use to send and receive notifications (just follow instructions when requested to do so...), and also your email. Now, in the WhatsApp -> API setup section. Here, you will find your temporal Access Token, (which is valid for 24 hours only), along with the Phone number ID, which is associated to the phone number from which you will send notifications. Note that there can be several IDs and phone numbers in that section and it is easy to be confused, but the only "ID" you need to input in the WhatsApp node of Mistika Workflows is the one labeled as Phone number ID (that is, not the phone number, but its ID...). Click on "Generate Access Token". Simply copy it, and paste it into the Access Token property of the WhatsApp node within Mistika Workflows. You can also find more information on how to get permanent tokens and set different sender numbers in Meta's articles such as Get Started - WhatsApp Business Management API Hope this clarify a bit more the node, it's parameters and how to set it up. Best regards, Cesar

Hi, the Phone Number Id is not the phone number but the Meta ID associated to your phone account. To get the Phone Number Id and the access token you need to hava a Meta developers account, which provides those items. You can get more information in the documentation of the Whatsapp node, either in Mistika Workflows (select the Whataspp node and go to the Helper panel to read about it, or by using this link to the manual: https://www.sgo.es/doc/workflows/whatsapp.html

Hi, I try to understand how works the WhatsApp Node in WF. I guess we must neter in with Watcher, but I don't really know what is the Phone Number ID ? It's not just the phone number ? And also the Access Token ? Thanks for your help!

Hello, I am messing around with Mistika Boutique but I can't see some settings in the interface at all because I cannot resize the GUI in any way. I'd have to collapse multiple options so that the option I want comes on top and even if it does, I still can't see all the choices in there. This is really frustrating What is the way to fix this? Thanks

Heya Carlos! Thanks a lot for the prompt response. I see that now - so the ideal paltform to work Mistika Boutique on would be Windows if I wanted HEVC directly from Boutique? Thanks

Hi, Thanks a lot for reaching out! I´m afraid the the Eval version only supports H264, AVI DV, Mistika JS and MXF VC-3 Low On the other hand, MacOS computers does not support NVidia codecs. I´m sorry for the inconvenience. Cheers! Carlos

Heya everyone, I am trying the Evaluation edition of Mistika Boutique on my Macbook Pro M4 Max. When I click on the Output panel and click on Video I only have two video output options: "Mistika" and "Quicktime movie" In tutorials I see that there is also the option of "MP4 Nvidia movie". I need to export my video to HEVC H.265 so it can play on my Meta Quest 3 and I do not have that option. Appreciate any response.

Hi haihong liu, Thanks a lot for reaching out! I´sorry that you have had this issue, on some computers a complete system reboot usually solves this issue, please try that first. If this doesn't solve the license issue we can try to manually restart the license server itself to force it to refresh the license file. In windows: 1.- Right-click on the windows menu-bar and in the context menu open the Task Manager 2.- Click on "More detail" if needed, go to the Processes tab and look for the sgoLicenseServer process. 3.- Right-click on it and, in the context menu select "End Task" In OSX: 1.- Go to Finder -> Applications -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor 2.- Look for the sgoLicenseServer process and double click on it 3.- Click on "Quit" and then in "Force Quit" Please, try it and try to run again Mistika. If it does not work please, open a ticket in support.sgo.es to get deeper into de issue. Cheers! Carlos

Hi all, A new maintenance version of Mistika Boutique is now available adding a new fix related to EXRs. You can already find this version in the 'Downloads' section of your Online SGO Account. Fix: Solved an issue related to the EXRs in Mistika. They are now functioning correctly.

They seem to do the same thing, and the tutorials don't explain the difference or when to use one or the other. Is there some documentation of the distinction? How do horizontal balance and vertical balance play into this? Is there a simple order of which of these adjustments to do first and how to set them?
