Sending a message to whatsapp groups through twilio with asp.net core

问题

I am trying to use whatsapp business api for my application with twilio. I already have read the documentation of whatsapp business api. My question is, can we use twilio to send the messages to different whatsapp group based on id. For example, If I have 3 groups such as Students, Professors, Assistants and based on each different group I want to send a specific message such as Hi to Students, Hello to Professors and Hey to Assistants. What I know till now that Whatsapp differentiate everything with specific id, for instance, chat.whatsapp.com/DeUzzel9O13231

I also have worked with the twilio and whatsapp api where you can send a message from your twilio number to your whatsapp number like below

using System;
using Twilio;
using Twilio.Rest.Api.V2010.Account;


class Program 
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // Find your Account Sid and Token at twilio.com/console
        // DANGER! This is insecure. See http://twil.io/secure
        const string accountSid = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
        const string authToken = "your_auth_token";

        TwilioClient.Init(accountSid, authToken);

        var message = MessageResource.Create(
            body: "Join Earth's mightiest heroes. Like Kevin Bacon.",
            from: new Twilio.Types.PhoneNumber("+15017122661"),
            to: new Twilio.Types.PhoneNumber("+15558675310")
        );

        Console.WriteLine(message.Sid);
    }
}

The code above is only for sending a message to a specific number. Can I do the same thing with the groups? If yes, How? Is there any documentation for that?

Thanks.

Doesn't look like a supported feature just yet.

"Can I send messages to WhatsApp groups or manage groups?

Currently, our API does not support messaging with or managing WhatsApp groups. We expect to add support for groups in the future."
