After installation of Package and Kits, can we add one whatsapp number of sandbox(for testing) and then on production instance? does this cause any issues?
Also can we test this on my personal business account with SDO org? I have been trying to connect but unable to connect with WABA since WABA requires verification..
Any insight on this?

Hi Hanan,
For WhatsApp integration with Marketing Cloud Advanced, I’d keep the sandbox/testing and production setup separate. You can generally use a test WhatsApp number/WABA for sandbox testing and then configure the production WABA/number separately, but make sure the required Meta/WABA assets and permissions are available for each environment.
For a personal business account, the main limitation is usually the Meta/WABA verification and business setup requirements. If the WABA cannot complete verification, the Salesforce connection may not be able to complete either.
I’d recommend using the Meta-provided test/sandbox setup where available for initial testing rather than connecting a personal production business number. Once the Salesforce configuration is validated, move to the production WABA and number.
If you’re getting a specific error while connecting the WABA, share the exact error message and where the connection fails (Meta or Salesforce), and it should be easier to narrow down the issue.
