[@BySaske]

Man, I have made this just after your last video about openia. Now I`m running ollama on server, and using on n8n wotkflow automation. Thankyou!

[@tafadzwad]

@BySaske That's amazing to hear! Running Ollama on a server and integrating it with n8n workflows is next-level stuff. Keep it up, and I’m glad my video helped! 🚀

[@XPyzon]

Any demo script

Would it be possible to make the api multi tenant ? So we can have multiple businesses running at the same time on the server ? Thank you and keep up the good work !

[@tafadzwad]

@markjones6894 Great question! Yes, you can make the API multi-tenant by using a unique identifier (e.g., tenant_id) to segregate data for each business. NestJS supports this with middleware and database scoping strategies. BUT - if businesses require very different custom logic, it can be simpler to create separate apps for each business. These apps can still run on the same server using containers like Docker for isolation, while sharing common infrastructure. This approach avoids the complexity of a centralized webhook and keeps each app tailored to its specific use case.

[@tafadzwad]

@markjones6894 Thanks for the kind words😀

[@markjones6894]

​ @tafadzwad would it be possible to make a video about it ? It would be of much help.

[@amjadalsharif8452]

This is such an important topic, @tafadzwad! A video explaining how to implement a multi-tenant API for large AI models would be very helpful! Hope you can cover this soon!

[@tafadzwad]

@markjones6894 @amjadalsharif8452 Thank you for the suggestion. I’ve got a few videos that I need to finish, but I’ll definitely cover this very soon. Stay tuned! 🚀

Please can you do a video on WhatsApp agent with custome data , thanks

[@GondaiNathanielRichardMgano]

I am liking these tutorials 👏🏽are they implementations for .Net and Java?

[@tafadzwad]

@GondaiNathanielRichardMgano I'm glad you're enjoying the tutorials! 🎉 You can absolutely apply these concepts to other languages. Since Ollama's API is compatible with OpenAI's library, you can use the official .NET library: github.com/openai/openai-dotnet . Alternatively, you can make direct API calls to Ollama, which works seamlessly with both Java and .NET. 😊

How do you prevent Meta from blocking your Messenger or WhatsApp account? I understand that they have been blocking accounts for using chatbots directly, just like you do. What did you do to avoid it?

[@tafadzwad]

@sinapxiagency Meta doesn’t block accounts for using their Cloud API - it’s the official integration method they recommend. Accounts are only blocked for violating Meta’s terms and conditions, such as engaging in spam or other prohibited activities. Users can also report a chatbot on WhatsApp if they find it problematic. In our videos, we demonstrate using the WhatsApp Cloud API, which is fully supported by Meta. As long as you follow their guidelines, your account won’t be blocked for using the API. Violations of the terms of service are what lead to blocks.😃

[@pradeeprad2235]

It's very helpful in knowing the diff ways we can use ollama in WhatsApp. Thank you so much for this valuable content. I have a question though, When using the developers portal for WhatsApp clod api, usually there shouldn't be an account with the number we are gonna use right? Please correct me if I am wrong. I wanted to know how you were able to use WhatsApp web with the same number as the one registered. If you can answer this, it will be helpful. Thanks in advance.

[@tafadzwad]

@pradeeprad2235 Thank you for your kind words! 😃👏 You’re correct that a number already active on WhatsApp can’t be used for a chatbot. In my previous video, I showed how to set up a custom phone number for the chatbot. In this video, I used my personal number to chat with the bot, which was operating on the custom number we configured in the earlier video. The WhatsApp Web account shown was linked to my personal WhatsApp, and I was sending messages to the chatbot’s custom number - not using the same one.

[@sriharshakankatala7014]

Do we need whatsapp business account to make this happens? Can you explain more on how to connect our whatsapp account with this meta for developers and also can u make a video where this chat ot reponds with the answers reading my pdfs

[@tafadzwad]

@sriharshakankatala7014 Hi! Yes, you’ll need a WhatsApp Business Account. I’ve covered how to connect your account with Meta for Developers in this step by step video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJ-ce31ufsmrg5o A video on setting up responses from your PDFs or knowledge base is coming soon - stay tuned! 😀

[@uchihadeivid]

Así mismo pero que el chatbot se pueda darle archivos pdf y que este atienda nuestro n3gocio ejemplo un restaurantr

[@tafadzwad]

@uchihadeivid ¡Hola! Gracias por tu interés. 😊 Muy pronto tendré un video sobre cómo alimentar al chatbot con conocimiento personalizado, lo que permitirá adaptarlo a casos específicos como tu restaurante. ¡Mantente atento!

[@uchihadeivid]

@tafadzwad muchas gracias bro, tengo un software que está escrito en C# es para el envío masivo de mensajes para whatsapp por si te interese lo que le falta es la integración de una para que esté completo. Muchas gracias por responder y si quedó atento soy fan de los chatbot sería un placer saludos desde paraguay bro.

[@tafadzwad]

@uchihadeivid ¡Hola! Gracias por compartir. Tu software en C# para envío masivo de mensajes suena súper interesante, especialmente con la posibilidad de integrar un chatbot para completarlo. Estaré publicando más contenido sobre integraciones y cómo personalizar chatbots, así que mantente pendiente. Me alegra mucho saber que eres fan de los chatbots. Un gran saludo desde aquí, ¡y gracias por tu apoyo! 🙌

[@yazanrisheh5127]

can this be dnoe with python?

[@tafadzwad]

@yazanrisheh5127 Absolutely, this can be done in Python! 😀 Both Ollama and OpenAI have official python libraries: github.com/ollama/ollama-python github.com/openai/openai-python . In addition to using these libraries, you can also make direct API calls to their endpoints using Python. 😀
