Overview

The node "WhatsApp Outreach by Boost.space" enables interaction with WhatsApp chats and messages through a set of operations. Specifically, the Chat - Get Many operation retrieves multiple chat records from the connected WhatsApp outreach service. This is useful for scenarios where you want to list recent or filtered WhatsApp chat conversations, such as monitoring ongoing chats, analyzing chat history, or integrating chat data into other workflows.

For example, you could use this node to:

  • Fetch the latest 50 WhatsApp chats created before a certain date.
  • Retrieve all chats started after a specific datetime to analyze recent customer interactions.
  • Limit the number of returned chats to avoid processing large datasets at once.

Properties

Name Meaning
Limit Maximum number of chat results to return. Must be at least 1.
After Filter to include only chats created strictly after this datetime (exclusive).
Before Filter to include only chats created strictly before this datetime (exclusive).

Output

The output is a JSON array where each item represents a chat object retrieved from the WhatsApp outreach service. The exact structure of each chat object depends on the external API response but typically includes details like chat ID, participants, timestamps, and message summaries.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the WhatsApp outreach service.
  • The node makes HTTP POST requests to a fixed base URL endpoint (https://rnmqfhwsqojadktbxnrf.supabase.co/functions/v1) with specific function paths for each operation.
  • Proper configuration of the API authentication credential in n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:
    • Authentication failures if the API key credential is missing or invalid.
    • Network errors if the external service endpoint is unreachable.
    • Invalid parameter values, e.g., setting Limit below 1, may cause request rejection.
  • Error messages:
    • Errors thrown by the external API will be surfaced; ensure that date filters are correctly formatted ISO strings.
    • If the node is configured to continue on fail, errors will appear in the output items under an error property.
  • Resolution tips:
    • Verify API credentials and permissions.
    • Check network connectivity and endpoint availability.
    • Validate input parameters before running the node.
