WhatsApp Calling Features Still Missing in HubSpot – When Will This Catch Up With WhatsApp API Updat

I’ve been following the discussions around WhatsApp integration with HubSpot (Professional Services Hub), particularly regarding WhatsApp calling features. Many of us have asked before, and the official response has typically been that “this limitation comes from WhatsApp’s API, not HubSpot.”

However, things have changed.

  • Meta/WhatsApp has already made voice and video calling available through their updated APIs.
  • Several other platforms and providers have started enabling these features.
  • Yet HubSpot hasn’t released any updates, roadmap mentions, or clear communication on this point.

This creates a gap for businesses like ours:

  • Our customer-facing teams still have to switch tools for calls, which breaks the seamless experience HubSpot aims to provide.
  • We can track messages inside HubSpot, but not calls — which are critical for sales and support workflows.
  • HubSpot’s official line remains that it’s an API limitation, but that’s no longer accurate.

My Questions to HubSpot & the Community:

  1. Is HubSpot actively working on enabling WhatsApp calling (voice & video) within the Professional Services package?
  2. If not, can we expect at least a public roadmap update acknowledging when this might come?
  3. Are there any workarounds or third-party connectors the community has successfully used to bridge this gap in the meantime?

Suggestions / Ideas:

  • Even if full native support takes time, HubSpot could at least offer beta access or an open pilot program for early adopters.
  • Improved transparency in the HubSpot roadmap around WhatsApp calling would help businesses plan better.
  • If there are known technical or compliance barriers, it would be useful for HubSpot to clarify them (rather than leaving it vague).

I’d love to hear from both the HubSpot product team and other community members:

  • How are you managing WhatsApp calls today if HubSpot isn’t supporting them?
  • Do you think HubSpot should prioritize this feature now that WhatsApp has opened the door?

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to insights, workarounds, and hopefully some official clarity from HubSpot.

I have shared it internally to bring more visibility to it.
I’ll check on this for you and I’ll update the thread.
Thanks for your patience!
In the meantime, I’d love to put you in touch with our Top Experts: Hi @danmoyle, @Brenner and @JessicaBaskey do you have suggestions or do you know any workarounds to help @RozzarioDigital, please?
Have a great day and thanks so much in advance for your contributions!

Welcome to the Community @RozzarioDigital - that’s a great question. First, I don’t have a workaround currently as I don’t many clients using WHatsApp in the US. However, I think you’re doing the right thing sharing it here where Community Managers and HubSpot folks like @BérangèreL can see it and share with the team.

I’ve also found folks using third-party tools like respond.io and TimelinesAI to help bridge WhatsApp and HubSpot, centralizing message logs and in some cases supporting more advanced workflows. I’ve also seen how some folks have set up custom integrations using WhatsApp Business API, HubSpot webhooks, and middleware tools to sync certain call events (here’s a link I found in an AI search). But for now, as you noted, there’s no confirmed plug-and-play solution to bring WhatsApp calling directly into HubSpot’s UI.

Keep raising the question, and maybe we’ll hear from the team thanks to amazing folks like Bérangère.

Amazing question/feeback @RozzarioDigital

Here in Brazil, we’re using a lot. But not with calling.

We’re developing and integration wiht N8N and AI to help our customers. Is it interesting to you?

Thanks @BérangèreL for tagging me here
