Hello,

I am developing an integration on my Demo Account (Sandbox) and I am receiving the error "ACCOUNT_LACKS_PERMISSIONS" when testing the WhatsApp/SMS delivery feature.

Could you please enable "Phone Authentication" and "WhatsApp Delivery" for my account?

API Account ID: ( redacted )

Thank you.
