HTTP callbacks (webhooks) for inbound WhatsApp messages now include new ProfileName, WaId, Forwarded, and FrequentlyForwarded parameters. The ProfileName parameter contains the WhatsApp sender's profile name and the WaId parameter contains the WhatsApp ID of the contact sending the incoming message. For messages received that have been forwarded or forwarded many times the parameters Forwarded or FrequentlyForwarded, respectively, will appear with the value true.
