Connection request pending with WhatsApp connected to Manychat

I’ve been having issues since the beginning of the year with the process of connecting a WhatsApp number (which I already set up in ManyChat) to my Facebook page.

I noticed that after linking WhatsApp with ManyChat, the number wasn’t automatically connected to my page. When I tried to add it manually from the Linked Accounts section, it showed as "Connection request pending" (Screenshot attached).

Because of this, I haven’t been able to run campaigns using the WhatsApp number I have in ManyChat. I’ve been dealing with this issue since February 1st, 2025.

Has anyone else experienced this? Do you know how to fix it?
