# 63055: Only marketing messages supported on MM Lite API

Log Type: CARRIER

Log Level: ERROR

## Description

This error occurs when you try to send a non-marketing WhatsApp message through MM Lite API. MM Lite API is designed for WhatsApp marketing messages, so route non-marketing messages through Cloud API instead.

### Possible causes

* Your application sent a non-marketing message to MM Lite API.
* You routed WhatsApp traffic to MM Lite API when that traffic should have used Cloud API.

### Possible solutions

* Send only marketing messages through MM Lite API. If the message is not marketing, use Cloud API instead.
* Review your message routing so non-marketing WhatsApp messages do not reach MM Lite API.
