[jdmis-alaz]

• I have checked and am using the latest version of the library.

Business account

Mode

EASY API/CLI

Current Behavior

/sendText { "to": "[email protected]", "content": "Hello World!" }

*I receive the text
but.... the response is this:

{ "success": false, "error": { "name": "ProtocolError", "message": "Please set arguments in request json body, not in params. Protocol error (Runtime.callFunctionOn): Promise was collected" } }

And I see this in the logs

Although the text is going out (good) it is breaking because it returns an error and no reference to the sent message.

Expected Behavior

Send actually works, but ALSO reports that it works so as not to break any downstream use of the wa-automate. Currently completely unusable.

Steps To Reproduce
