How it works

Set it up once. Then just save.

Four steps, most of them one-time. Nothing is installed on your PC.

  1. Turn on Busy in InfiQ.

    Open Integrations → Busy and add your Busy company (name and Busy licence number). InfiQ shows a web address and four short settings.

    IntegrationsBusy

    Company · Example Traders

    Busy licence no. · ••••••••

  2. Paste the settings into Busy, once.

    In Busy's API settings, paste the address and the four values InfiQ shows (the ID, the secret, the message field, the mobile field). This is one-time; nothing else is installed.

    • X-INFIQ-ID
    • X-INFIQ-Secret
    • X-INFIQ-DATA
    • X-INFIQ-MOB

    What to paste into Busy

    What you paste into Busy's API settings, once per Busy company. Values are examples.

    Busy API settings and what to enter in each
    Busy settingWhat to enter
    URLhttps://api.infiq.in/integrations/busy21/ingestThe web address InfiQ shows.
    UsernameNameX-INFIQ-IDValue: your ID from InfiQ.
    PasswordNameX-INFIQ-SecretValue: your secret from InfiQ (shown once).
    MessageNameX-INFIQ-DATAValue: the line InfiQ gives for that document type, e.g.BZ21-SI-7K3Q9XMD ; {{Invoice No}},{{Amount}}
    MobileNameX-INFIQ-MOBValue: Busy's party mobile field.
    Sender IDLeave blank.

    InfiQ shows your exact values, with copy buttons, when you add a Busy company.

  3. Choose what to send.

    For each document type (e.g. Sales invoice), pick an approved WhatsApp template. InfiQ gives you a short code for the document type, and the line to paste into its message box in Busy. That line can include values like invoice number and amount.

  4. Save a voucher. Done.

    Your party receives the PDF on WhatsApp. You watch it go Sent → Delivered → Read in InfiQ.

FAQ

Busy integration: common questions

Setup, sending, reminders, pricing and data safety, answered plainly.

Do I need to install anything on my PC?

No. Busy 21 already has API settings. You paste a few values from InfiQ into them once.

Which documents can I send?

25 types across sales, purchase, job work, accounts, payroll and service: invoices, challans, quotations, orders, notes, receipts, payments, statements, confirmations, pay slips and service-call documents. You choose which types to switch on.

Which number do my customers see?

Your own WhatsApp Business number connected to InfiQ. With several numbers or Busy companies, you choose which number sends for each company.

Is there a fee for the Busy integration?

No. You pay only the normal WhatsApp message rate from your wallet, and only for delivered messages. See pricing.

What if I save the same invoice again?

It is not sent again within 24 hours, unless the document changed. You can turn off re-sending of changed documents.

Can I test before customers get anything?

Yes. Preview mode sends nothing, Test number mode sends everything to your own phone first, and the setup checker shows exactly what Busy sent.

Can the message include the invoice number and amount?

Yes. Busy fills in values such as invoice number, amount and date, and they appear in the WhatsApp message itself.

Can InfiQ remind customers about payments?

Yes. Automatic reminders before and after the due date, with an “Already paid” button. Reminders stop when the customer taps it, when you enter the receipt in Busy, or when you mark the invoice paid.

Can I use more than one Busy company?

Yes. Each company gets its own settings, number, document types and logs. Your account includes one; ask us for more.

Will customer replies reach me?

Yes. The document appears in the customer's chat in InfiQ, and their reply arrives in your inbox like any other message.

Can I stop sending to one party?

Yes. Turn on “Don't send Busy documents” on that contact, for any of your Busy companies.

What happens if something fails?

It shows in the Errors tab with the reason, and you get a daily summary. If Busy stops sending altogether, you get an alert.

Do my customers need to opt in?

Yes. WhatsApp requires that people agree to receive messages from your business. Contacts who opt out are never messaged.

Is my data safe?

PDFs are stored privately and encrypted, the connection is HTTPS-only, and your secret is stored one-way. You can lock the connection to your office IP and keep pay slips hidden from agents. Your data is fully separated from other businesses.

Why would a contact show as “Unknown”?

Only if Busy isn't set to send the party name. Add the party name to the message line, and InfiQ keeps contact names up to date. A contact's own WhatsApp name is also picked up when they message you.

Does it work if my PC is off?

Documents are sent when Busy saves them, so Busy must be running and online at that moment. Payment reminders go out on schedule from InfiQ, even when your PC is off.

Still have questions?

Stop sending documents by hand.
