I mean to put together an URL that leads me to a composing message in a WhatsApp web tab in Chrome.
The official click-to-chat method is with .
That produces the following pop up (number removed)
with the URL
Clicking on Open URL:whatsapp only closes the popup. Clicking on CONTINUE TO CHAT brings the popup again.
I mean to use Web Whatsapp, not the desktop application.
I tried two alternatives that might work
whatsapp://send?phone=<number>Both produce the same result as above.
How can I solve this?

if you are testing from browser you just replace api.whatsapp.com with web.whatsapp.com and it'll redirect you to the final send/compose window (which actually shows if you click cancel twice saying the app is not installed on the api.whatsapp.com link) whatsapp page adds a link
