Create template on the WABA

POST 

/v1/:waba_id/message_templates

Creates a template in Meta's original contract, without the up-front validation of variables and examples that POST /templates performs.

Unless you have a specific reason to use the raw format, prefer POST /templates: example errors show up immediately instead of turning into a rejection hours later.
