ChatWootInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the ChatWoot API to update an existing canned response within a specified account. Canned responses are predefined message templates that can be quickly inserted during conversations, improving efficiency and consistency in communication.

A typical use case is when a user wants to modify the content or short code of a canned response for a particular account without manually updating it through the ChatWoot dashboard. For example, customer support teams can automate updates to their frequently used replies across multiple accounts.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the updated canned response as returned by the ChatWoot API. This typically includes fields such as the canned response's ID, updated content, short code, timestamps, and possibly metadata related to the account.

No binary data output is involved.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the ChatWoot API.
• The base URL for the ChatWoot instance must be configured in the credentials.
• The node uses the ChatWoot REST API endpoint for updating canned responses.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid Account Id or Canned Response Id: If either ID is incorrect or does not exist, the API will return an error. Verify the IDs before running the node.
• Authentication Errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to update canned responses.
• Empty Content or Short Code: While these fields may be optional, providing empty strings might overwrite existing values unintentionally. Confirm intended updates.
• API Rate Limits: Frequent updates may hit rate limits imposed by ChatWoot; handle such errors by retrying after some delay.
