Clickatell - Whatsapp integration

I'm trying to send a test message using Whatsapp and I'm getting this error message:

"error":{"code":27,"description":"Recipient not available on channel."}

I did find the error message here (https://www.clickatell.com/developers/api-documentation/one-api-error-messages/) but it does not give more details as to what's wrong.

Below is my curl request.

curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: (hidden)" -d '{"messages": [{ "channel": "whatsapp", "to": "1xxxxxxxxxx", "content": "Test WhatsApp Message Text", "From": "1xxxxxxxxxx"}]}' -s https://platform.clickatell.com/v1/message

Can anyone give me more insight into this error message?

You could try to use the channel 'Whatsapp' instead of 'whatsapp', as described in the Clickatell docs.
