# Legacy WhatsApp Business App automation message setup

> Review the older WhatsApp Business App automation message path only if your team still relies on that legacy supporting workflow.

Use this page if you still need the older WhatsApp Business App automation message path in a supporting workflow.

## Overview

This page is kept as a temporary legacy supporting reference.

The current automation docs now use these canonical pages for the main setup flow:

* [Get started with automation in bitCRM](/bitcrm/how-to-create-an-automation)
* [Set up Shopify triggers in automation](/bitcrm/how-to-set-up-shopify-triggers-in-automation)
* [Add steps to an automation](/bitcrm/how-to-add-steps-to-an-automation)
* [Choose a message template for WhatsApp API automation](/bitcrm/how-to-create-a-message-template-for-whatsapp-api-automation)

## Before you start

* Use the current canonical automation pages first.
* Only use this page if your team is still working with the older WhatsApp Business App automation message setup.

## Legacy path summary

The older page structure assumed this sequence:

1. create a new automation scenario
2. choose a Shopify trigger
3. add a WhatsApp Business App message step
4. save the scenario

## What happens next

If you are documenting the current product flow, return to the canonical automation pages instead of extending this page.
