I'm starting to programming bot in whatsapp and I want to create one so that my family can use, but here's is the problem, I use ngrok to create my endpoint URL, so I make my machine into a host, and that's the problem, because when I turn off ngrok in my machine, the bot stops working. So is that a way to make a stable endpoint to be stored in cloud, so I can use my bot 24h a day?

I was trying to find a site that wouldn't ask for my credit card info, not the case of aws, google cloud, and others, thanks to comments I founded heroku where you can use heroku server to lauch your API totaly free and don't request for your credit card. Basically you have follow the steps:

  1. Create your heroku account and download heroku CLI;
  2. Setup your app directory as a git repository;
  3. Create a new Heroku app;
  4. Deploy your app to heroku;

There you go, your API is on cloud. For more details check on https://github.com/nikhilkumarsingh/WhatsAppBotTut
