Troubleshooting
- Ensure the phone number is correctly formatted without '+' or spaces; invalid formatting will cause errors.
- The image URL must be publicly accessible; private or inaccessible URLs will cause the send operation to fail.
- API authentication credentials must be valid and correctly configured; authentication errors will prevent message sending.
- Timeout settings should be adjusted if the API response is slow to avoid premature failures.
- Error messages from the API are propagated; check the 'message' and 'error' fields in the response for details.
