Using this simple program I can send Whatsapp messages and it works perfectly. My questions are:

1. Is there way to get the name to number mapping? Right now I just give the number and Whatsapp resolves it. Is there a way to access the phone name list from Thunkable?
2. Can I list the Whatsapp group available for me via Thunkable?  
Once I have list can I choose the Whatsapp group of my preference?  
After selecting can I send the message to the set of groups?  
Kindly advice.

Has the Whatsapp interface to external apps. This works for Android too.

@anandavardhana57zwwl It sounds like what you’re needing is the Whatsapp API to grab this data.
