Hi team,

This is for a self-serve client.  
The requirement is that the client is looking into using a DID(Direct Inward Dialing) in place of a physical sim and create a whatsapp account and connect it to the bot for whatsapp channel.

Is this achievable? If so how can we take this forward?

Thank you.
