WhatsApp approved message template library in VGraple CRM

VGraple CRM's template gallery is a set of 75 ready-to-submit WhatsApp templates grouped by industry, each with real body copy, sample variable values, and a category already set correctly. Selecting one pre-fills the builder with your business name in place of a placeholder, so a first template can be submitted in minutes instead of drafted from a blank page.

The steps on this page, in order.

Before you start

  • You need the "Submit templates to Meta" permission to use the gallery or bulk submit; viewing it only requires "View templates."
  • A connected WhatsApp Business Account is required to actually submit; the gallery itself is browsable without one.
  • Nothing here is plan-gated; the gallery, the builder and Meta submission are on every plan, including Free.

Steps

  1. Open the gallery. From Templates, click Browse Gallery. Templates are grouped by industry: Salon & Spa, Tattoo & Piercing Studio, Cosmetic Store, Dental Clinic and Real Estate.

  1. Browse or search by use case. Filter by industry, or search for a use case like "appointment reminder," "abandoned cart" or "site visit." Each card shows the category, the number of variables, and a sample of the message.

  2. Use a single template. Click Use this template on any card to open the builder with the body, footer, category and sample variable values already filled in, and the business-name placeholder swapped for your workspace's actual name. Review, edit if you want, and submit like any other template.

  3. Or submit a whole industry at once with bulk submit. Click Submit [Industry] Templates to open the bulk submit dialog. It shows how many templates will be submitted, for example 15 for Salon & Spa, and notes that Utility templates are usually approved within minutes.

  4. Enter your business name once. This single field replaces the business-name placeholder across every template in the batch before submission.

  5. Watch the results stream in. Bulk submit reports each template's outcome as it lands, Submitted, Skipped or Errors, rather than leaving the dialog looking stuck for the minute or so a full industry batch takes.

  6. Review the summary. Once finished, a three-number summary shows how many templates were submitted, skipped (usually because a template with that name already exists) and errored.

What you will see

Newly submitted templates from the gallery appear in your Templates list with status Pending, exactly like a template built by hand. Once Meta reviews and approves them, they are immediately available from the inbox, broadcasts, flows, sequences and automation rules.

Troubleshooting

SymptomLikely causeFix
"Business name is required" in bulk submitThe business name field was left emptyEnter your business name before starting the batch
Bulk submit reports several templates as "Skipped"A template with the same generated name already exists in this workspaceThis is expected if the industry was submitted before; skipped templates are not re-created or overwritten
Bulk submit reports "Errors" for some templatesUsually a WhatsApp Business Account connection issue mid-batch, or a Meta-side rejection for that specific templateOpen each errored template's row for the specific reason; retry it individually from the gallery if the underlying issue is fixed
Gallery template rejected after submission despite using the pre-written bodyEditing the pre-filled content before submitting introduced an issue the original gallery wording did not haveRun the pre-submission validator on your edited version, or see what each validator message means
Can't find a template for my industryThe gallery currently covers five industries onlyUse the closest match as a starting point and edit the wording; the builder and validator work identically on a gallery template and one built from scratch

For Meta's own separate catalogue of pre-vetted templates, open Meta's Library from the Templates page, which reviews fastest since Meta is not reviewing wording it did not write. To understand what each template category costs before you bulk submit, see template categories and pricing.

Frequently asked questions

How many templates are in the gallery, and which industries?
75 templates across five industries: Salon and Spa (15), Tattoo and Piercing Studio (15), Cosmetic Store (15), Dental Clinic (15) and Real Estate (15), covering bookings, reminders, confirmations, aftercare, reviews, win-backs and offers.
What replaces the business name placeholder in gallery templates?
Every gallery template body carries a business-name placeholder. Selecting one from the gallery, or using the bulk submit tool, replaces it with your own workspace's business name automatically before the template reaches the builder or Meta.
Are gallery templates automatically approved?
No. Selecting a gallery template pre-fills the builder; you still review and submit it, and Meta still reviews it under your own WhatsApp Business Account like any other template. Utility templates from the gallery are usually approved within minutes.
What is bulk submit, and when should I use it?
Bulk submit sends every template in one industry, all 15 for Salon and Spa, for example, to Meta in one action after you enter your business name once. It is the fastest way to build out a full messaging library for a new workspace.
Can I edit a gallery template before submitting it?
Yes, fully. Selecting a gallery template opens the same builder used for any other template, with the body, category, variables and samples pre-filled. Add a header, buttons, or change wording before submitting; the pre-submission validator checks it the same as a template built from scratch.
What is the difference between this gallery and Meta's own template library?
This gallery is VGraple CRM's own 75 hand-written, industry-specific templates. Meta's Library is Meta's separate, much larger catalogue of pre-vetted templates that approve fastest because Meta is not reviewing wording it did not write; both are reachable from the Templates page.
