# Chatbot - How to send media

No **Chatbot**, it is possible to send different types of media during the support flow to make the conversation more interactive and informative. However, it is important **to respect WhatsApp's size and format limitations**, to avoid failures when sending messages.

#### 📎 Types of media that can be sent

You can use the following types of media in the chatbot:

* 🖼️ **Image** – Ideal for banners, products, or visual instructions.
* 🎥 **Video** – For demonstrations or presentations.
* 🎧 **Audio** – Recorded messages or quick explanations.
* 📄 **Document** – PDFs, catalogs, contracts, or informational materials.
* 😀 **Sticker** – Stickers for more casual interactions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sprinthub.com/en/topics/convert/chatbot/chatbot-common-questions/chatbot-how-to-send-media.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
