ChatWootInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the ChatWoot API to list all inboxes associated with a specified account. It is useful for scenarios where you need to retrieve and manage multiple communication channels or inboxes within a ChatWoot account, such as displaying available inboxes for routing messages or integrating inbox data into workflows.

For example, you might use this node to fetch all inboxes of a customer support team’s ChatWoot account to dynamically assign incoming tickets or to synchronize inbox information with another system.

Properties

Output

The node outputs a JSON array containing details of all inboxes retrieved from the specified account. Each item in the array represents an inbox object with its properties as returned by the ChatWoot API, typically including identifiers, names, types, and other metadata related to each inbox.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to the ChatWoot API.
• Needs an API authentication token configured in the node credentials to authorize requests.
• The base URL for the ChatWoot instance must be set in the credentials configuration.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:

• Error messages:

  • Authentication errors typically indicate invalid or expired API tokens; reconfigure credentials accordingly.
  • "Account not found" or similar errors suggest the provided Account Id does not exist or is inaccessible.
