RelayWA Python SDK
Official server-side Python SDK for RelayWA, providing WhatsApp messaging, session management, and webhooks through the existing RelayWA REST API.
Installation
Requires Python 3.9 or newer.
python -m pip install relaywa-sdk
To install a specific version:
python -m pip install relaywa-sdk==0.1.1
Version 0.1.1 will be available only after the release is published on PyPI.
Quick start
Keep your RelayWA session key in a server-side environment variable. Never embed it in browser or mobile application code.
import os
from relaywa import RelayWA
client = RelayWA(os.environ["RELAYWA_SESSION_KEY"])
# Read sessions without changing any WhatsApp connection.
sessions = client.sessions()
print(sessions)
# Sending is a live operation; uncomment only when ready.
# client.send_text("12025550123", "Hello from RelayWA")
The default API base URL is https://relaywa.com/api.
Common operations
# Read a session and its chats.
session = client.session("your-session-id")
chats = client.session_chats("your-session-id")
# Send a message (this affects live WhatsApp state).
# client.send_text("12025550123", "Your order is ready")
# List webhook endpoints.
webhooks = client.webhooks()
Other SDK methods cover media (image, video, audio, document), location, contacts, polls, replies, reactions, session lifecycle, directory resources, and webhook management.
Security and operational safety
- Keep session keys secret and server-side. Avoid logging credentials or request authorization headers.
- Use HTTPS for API requests and webhook destinations.
- Sending messages and changing session state are real operations. Do not automatically retry timed-out sends or mutations: the first request may have succeeded.
- Run integration tests against a dedicated test session, not a production WhatsApp account.
- Validate incoming webhook signatures before processing webhook events. Refer to the RelayWA API documentation for the relevant headers and verification requirements.
Error handling
from relaywa import RelayWAError
try:
sessions = client.sessions()
except RelayWAError as error:
print(f"RelayWA request failed: {error}")
