A Green API alternative with the same API. Migrate by changing one URL.
Flow API speaks the Green API request format: the same method names, request bodies and webhook notifications. Your Make scenarios, n8n workflows and code keep working after you swap the host and credentials.
The change, side by side
Body stays the same: {"chatId":"972501234567@c.us","message":"Hello"}
What carries over unchanged

Questions about switching
Is Flow API a drop-in replacement for Green API?
For the HTTP API, yes: Flow API accepts the same URL shape, method names, request bodies and webhook format. Code and SDKs built for Green API work after changing the base URL to https://flowapi.pro and the instance credentials.
How long does migrating from Green API take?
Most integrations move in a few minutes: create an instance, scan the QR code, then change the host and credentials in each module. The WhatsApp number is linked to Flow API as a new device.
What does Flow API cost?
$10 per number per month, $100 per number per year, or $400 per year for five numbers, with a 7-day free trial and no credit card required.
7 days free, one number, no credit card.
