Annotate certain features as optional/advanced We've had some people get confused into installing Matrix Corporal and having pain with that. With this documentation change, we try to make it clearer that it's an advanced feature not to be touched unless you know what you're doing. On a similar note, we also make sure other things are properly labeled as "(optional)" and/or "(advanced)".

# Setting up Mautrix Whatsapp (optional)
Add documentation and fix templates
6 years ago
The playbook can install and configure [mautrix-whatsapp](https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-whatsapp) for you.
See the project's [documentation](https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-whatsapp/wiki) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
Use the following playbook configuration:

Add support for automatic Double Puppeting for all Mautrix bridges
4 years ago
## Set up Double Puppeting
If you'd like to use [Double Puppeting](https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-whatsapp/wiki/Authentication#replacing-whatsapp-accounts-matrix-puppet-with-matrix-account) (hint: you most likely do), you have 2 ways of going about it.
### Method 1: automatically, by enabling Shared Secret Auth
The bridge will automatically perform Double Puppeting if you enable [Shared Secret Auth](configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md) for this playbook.
This is the recommended way of setting up Double Puppeting, as it's easier to accomplish, works for all your users automatically, and has less of a chance of breaking in the future.
### Method 2: manually, by asking each user to provide a working access token
**Note**: This method for enabling Double Puppeting can be configured only after you've already set up bridging (see [Usage](#usage)).
When using this method, **each user** that wishes to enable Double Puppeting needs to follow the following steps:
- retrieve a Matrix access token for yourself. You can use the following command:
```
curl \
--data '{"identifier": {"type": "m.id.user", "user": "YOUR_MATRIX_USERNAME" }, "password": "YOUR_MATRIX_PASSWORD", "type": "m.login.password", "device_id": "Mautrix-Whatsapp", "initial_device_display_name": "Mautrix-Whatsapp"}' \
https://matrix.DOMAIN/_matrix/client/r0/login
```
- send the access token to the bot. Example: `login-matrix MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE`
- make sure you don't log out the `Mautrix-Whatsapp` device some time in the future, as that would break the Double Puppeting feature
## Usage

You then need to start a chat with `@whatsappbot:YOUR_DOMAIN` (where `YOUR_DOMAIN` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
