Get About / Status Text
View All WhatsApp Number Validation & Profile Lookup APIs →Retrieve the user's About (status signature) text and profile-picture version id. Two-step flow: obtain a userHash via Check WhatsApp Account Exists (by Full Number) first, then pass it here. Invalid/expired userHash is rejected without hitting the upstream. If the number is not registered, exists=false; an empty about means the user has no status text or hides it.
API Features
About / status text Fetch the user's public About signature in one call for display or enrichment
Picture version id Response includes pictureId, which changes when the profile photo changes (useful for cache invalidation)
Gateway-validated userHash Invalid or expired tokens are rejected before any upstream call
