If you are an Android App developer you can make use of implicit Intents to share a message via WhatsApp Application.
WhatsApp share SnippetIntent sendToWhatsAppIntent = new Intent();
sendToWhatsAppIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendToWhatsAppIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This message would be shared via WhatsApp.");
sendToWhatsAppIntent.setType("text/plain");
startActivity(sendToWhatsAppIntent);
But if you are not an Android Java Native App developer and still want to integrate WhatsApp with your App or Website, it is now officially possible to share a message using HTML code to WhatsApp contacts, i.e. with your Website.
WhatsApp provides a custom URL (whatsapp://send?text=) to send a message with WhatsApp :
Any website can now send text messages to the WhatsApp chat application. One has to send a pre-filled text message to the custom URL scheme using an anchor tag. Opening Whatsapp://send?text= followed by the text to send, will open WhatsApp. The user can now choose a contact, and pre-fill the input field with the specified text.
Example: How to achieve this :<html>
<head>
<title>Send Message from Wesite to WhatsApp</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="whatsapp://send?text=Message!">
Send Message to a Contact Via WhatsApp.</a>
</body>
</html>
Note: As the text message is sent as a Query String, do not forget to make the text URL encoded (example text="hello%20there!"). Also, note that this functionality may not work on webpages accessed from desktops (the page has to be accessed through an Android device having WhatsApp application installed on it)
