Overview

This node, "WhatsApp Outreach by Boost.space," enables sending WhatsApp messages programmatically via an API. Specifically, the Message - Create One operation allows users to start a new conversation by sending a message to one or more recipients identified by their internal attendee IDs. This is useful for automating outreach, notifications, or customer engagement workflows where initiating conversations on WhatsApp is required.

Practical examples:

  • Sending a welcome message to newly registered users.
  • Notifying multiple attendees about an event update.
  • Starting a support conversation with selected customers.

Properties

Name Meaning
Attendees IDs One or more internal IDs of users to whom the message will be sent.
Text The content of the message that will start the new conversation.
Subject ID An optional subject identifier to set the conversation's subject (can be left empty).

The Attendees IDs property supports multiple values, each requiring the internal user ID string.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the API after attempting to send the message. This typically includes details about the created message or conversation status.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the WhatsApp Outreach service by Boost.space.
  • The node communicates with a remote API endpoint hosted at a specific URL (a Supabase function URL).
  • Proper configuration of the API authentication credential in n8n is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing attendee IDs may cause the API to reject the request.
    • Empty or missing text content will likely result in an error since the message body is required.
    • Network or authentication failures if the API key is incorrect or expired.

  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is correctly configured and valid.
    • "Invalid attendees IDs": Verify that the provided IDs exist and are correctly formatted.
    • "Message text cannot be empty": Ensure the "Text" property is filled with meaningful content.
