Overview

This node sends a message with interactive buttons to a specified recipient using the Evolution API. It is useful for scenarios where you want to engage users with quick action buttons such as replies, copying text, opening URLs, or making calls directly from the message. For example, a customer support bot can send a message with buttons for common queries, or a marketing campaign can include buttons linking to promotional URLs.

Use Case Examples

  1. Sending a message with reply buttons to a customer for quick responses.
  2. Sending a message with a URL button to direct users to a website.
  3. Sending a message with a call button to allow users to call a support number directly.
