360dialog WhatsApp API + MCP vs YCloud

360dialog WhatsApp API + MCP 8

No changelog or release notes found. The Usernames and BSUID page dates Meta's rollout of business-scoped user IDs by month (in webhooks March to April 2026, Meta's Contact Book April 2026, sending from early July 2026), and the Messages reference, which follows Meta's Cloud API payloads, carries the recipient field for it. These are Meta's Cloud API changes carried through 360dialog's proxy, not a dated change 360dialog made to its own API, so they don't set recency (0, as on 1 October). No dated API change since 6 August. The marketing message price cap ("Open Beta since 1 October 2026") is a beta and doesn't count, and Direct Send's move to general availability carries no date (0). Closed service with a support response-time page and no public changelog (8 of 15). No official SDKs (0). No packages to assess (0). 0+0+8+0+0 = 8.

YCloud 74

@ycloud-cpaas/ycloud-sdk-node 1.17.2 on 3 November 2026 (30). Releases 1.17.0 (23 October), 1.17.1 (26 October) and 1.17.2 in the window (20). Closed service with a ticket desk; GitHub issue replies weren't sampled (6 of 15). Current official SDKs in four languages, generated from the spec; no MCP server in the docs or registry (15). The Node SDK repository has no CI workflow in the clone we read (3 of 10). 30 + 20 + 6 + 15 + 3 = 74.

360dialog WhatsApp API + MCP 53

Responses follow Meta's Cloud API shapes. GET /message_templates takes a fields list for field selection and a limit (18 of 25). Cursor pagination with after and before and next and previous links on the template list. We checked that list only (15 of 20). Error codes with resolution steps an agent can act on (15 of 20). No idempotency key found, and the MCP docs don't mention tool annotations (0 of 20). No official SDKs. A send needs only the D360-API-KEY header and a Cloud API message body (5 of 15).

YCloud 83

List endpoints use a documented pagination guide with limits; send responses are small (18 of 25). Pagination and filters (18 of 20). Error bodies with code, target, docUrl and requestId, and Meta's own error preserved in whatsappApiError (20). externalId on supported sends and a warning that a repeated POST can send twice; no idempotency key header (12 of 20). A send needs a recipient and content; official SDKs for Node.js, Java, Go and PHP (15). 18 + 18 + 20 + 12 + 15 = 83.

360dialog WhatsApp API + MCP 70

The Markdown reference pages embed an OpenAPI 3.1.0 document titled Messaging API, version 1.52.4 on 4 November (1.50.7 on 2 October), with a D360-API-KEY header scheme and response schemas. We read the Templates section in full. We found no standalone download, so an agent has to collect it page by page (20 of 25). llms.txt listing 305 pages, a .md version of every page and an ?ask= query parameter that answers questions (10). API reference pages describe endpoints and parameters, mostly following Meta's Cloud API payloads (12 of 20). Typed query parameters and response schemas in the spec, with enums not checked (10 of 15). More than 60 error codes, each with a suggested fix (13 of 15). The spec carries a version number and flags the legacy /v1/configs template endpoints as deprecated, but we found no changelog (5 of 15).

YCloud 90

OpenAPI 3.0 file for API v2 (45 paths) and a legacy v1 file, public on docs.ycloud.com (25). llms.txt and Markdown pages (10). Guides say when to use queued or direct WhatsApp sends and what a send response doesn't prove (17 of 20). 238 enums in the spec (14 of 15). Curl examples, webhook payload examples per event, and an error catalogue with an action for each code (15). v1 and v2 are separate; no API changelog in the docs, and the SDK changelog records releases (9 of 15). 25 + 10 + 17 + 14 + 15 + 9 = 90.
