Interact with CrunchzApp API

Actions22

Overview

This node interacts with the CrunchzApp API to send a typing indicator status to a specified contact. When executed, it signals to the recipient that the sender is currently typing a message. This feature is useful in chat automation workflows where you want to simulate human-like interaction or provide real-time feedback to users that a response is being prepared.

Practical examples include:

  • In customer support bots, showing typing status to indicate the bot is processing a request.
  • In marketing automation, creating a more engaging and natural conversation flow by signaling typing before sending messages.

Properties

Name Meaning
Contact Id The unique identifier of the contact to whom the typing indicator will be shown (format: xxx@c.us).

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the CrunchzApp API after sending the typing indicator. This typically includes confirmation of the action or any relevant metadata returned by the API. There is no binary output associated with this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active CrunchzApp API key credential configured in n8n for authentication.
  • Depends on the CrunchzApp API endpoint at https://api.crunchz.app/api.
  • The node uses standard HTTP headers for JSON content negotiation.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Contact Id: Ensure the Contact Id is correctly formatted and corresponds to an existing contact.
    • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
    • Network or API downtime: Check connectivity and CrunchzApp service status.

  • Error messages:

    • Unauthorized or 401 errors usually indicate invalid credentials.
    • 400-series errors may indicate malformed requests, such as incorrect Contact Id format.
    • 500-series errors suggest server-side issues; retry after some time or contact support.
