Meta WhatsApp Error Code 132000 (WABA Template Param Count Mismatch) — Wrong Number of Variables — Fix

Overview

Error code #132000 — "Template Param Count Mismatch". The number of variables sent doesn't match the template's definition. This is a payload issue, not a ChatDaddy bug.

Why This Happens

• The API payload has the wrong number of variables compared to the template's placeholders.

How to Fix

1. Open the template in WhatsApp Manager and count its {{variable}} placeholders.
2. Match the variable count exactly in your send (no more, no fewer).
3. Verify the payload structure, then resend.
