The WhatsApp node is a bit of a fudge I think. It tries to run a headless browser (Puppeteer) to run the WhatsApp web page. That page itself requires that you have a mobile phone version of WhatsApp running because the WhatsApp web version is not a full client.

Does the node require you to install Puppeteer separately? Otherwise, can you open WhatsApp web in your browser successfully?

no idea. I dont use it because its a complete hack (because whatsapp they dont offer a free api)

I use telegram (as do many on the forum) - because it is far better.
