Building Your First WhatsApp Chatbot
This n8n template builds a simple WhatsApp chabot acting as a Sales Agent. The Agent is backed by a product catalog vector store to better answer user's questions.
This template is intended to help introduce n8n users interested in building with WhatsApp.
How it works
This template is in 2 parts: creating the product catalog vector store and building the WhatsApp AI chatbot.
A product brochure is imported via HTTP request node and its text contents extracted.
The text contents are then uploaded to the in-memory vector store to build a knowledgebase for the chatbot.
A WhatsApp trigger is used to capture messages from customers where non-text messages are filtered out.
The customer's message is sent to the AI Agent which queries the product catalogue using the vector store tool.
The Agent's response is sent back to the user via the WhatsApp node.
How to use
Once you've setup and configured your WhatsApp account and credentials
First, populate the vector store by clicking the "Test Workflow" button.
Next, activate the workflow to enable the WhatsApp chatbot.
Message your designated WhatsApp number and you should receive a message from the AI sales agent.
Tweak datasource and behaviour as required.
Requirements
WhatsApp Business Account
OpenAI for LLM
Customising this workflow
Upgrade the vector store to Qdrant for persistance and production use-cases.
Handle different WhatsApp message types for a more rich and engaging experience for customers.

Automated Web Scraping: email a CSV, save to Google Sheets & Microsoft Excel
How it works:
The workflow starts by sending a request to a website to retrieve its HTML content.
It then parses the HTML extracting the relevant information
The extracted data is storted and converted into a CSV file.
The CSV file is attached to an email and sent to your specified address.
The data is simultaneously saved to both Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel for further analysis or use.
Set-up steps:
Change the website to scrape in the "Fetch website content" node
Configure Microsoft Azure credentials with Microsoft Graph permissions (required for the Save to Microsoft Excel 365 node)
Configure Google Cloud credentials with access to Google Drive, Google Sheets and Gmail APIs (the latter is required for the Send CSV via e-mail node).

Scrape business emails from Google Maps without the use of any third party APIs
Who is this template for?
This workflow template is designed for sales, marketing, and business development professionals who want a cost-effective and efficient way to generate leads. By leveraging n8n core nodes, it scrapes business emails from Google Maps without relying on third-party APIs or paid services, ensuring there are no additional costs involved.

You can watch the video tutorial here: https://youtu.be/HaiO-UeiKBA
How it works
This template streamlines email scraping from Google Maps using only n8n core nodes, ensuring a completely free and self-contained solution. Here’s how it operates:
Input Queries
You provide a list of queries, each consisting of keywords related to the type of business you want to target and the specific region or subregion you’re interested in.
Iterates through Queries
The workflow processes each query one at a time. For each query, it triggers a sub-workflow dedicated to handling the scraping tasks.
Scrapes Google Maps for URLs
Using these queries, the workflow scrapes Google Maps to collect URLs of business listings matching the provided criteria.
Fetches HTML Content
The workflow then fetches the HTML pages of the collected URLs for further processing.
Extracts Emails
Using a Code Node with custom JavaScript, the workflow runs regular expressions on the HTML content to extract business email addresses.
Setup
Add Queries:
Open the first node, "Run Workflow" and input a list of queries, each containing the business keywords and the target region.
Configure the Google Sheets Node:
Open the Google Sheets node and select a document and specific sheet where the scraped results will be saved.
Run the workflow:
Click on "Test workflow" and watch your Google Sheets document gradually receive business email addresses.
Customize as Needed:
You can adjust the regular expressions in the Code Node to refine the email extraction logic or add logic to extract other kinds of information.

Assessment: uses OpenAI gpt-4o and a JSON parser to determine if a response is necessary.
Reply Generation: crafts a reply with OpenAI GPT-4 Turbo
Draft Integration: after converting the text to html, it places the draft into the Gmail thread as a reply to the first message
Set Up Overview (~10 minutes):
OAuth Configuration (follow n8n instructions here):
Setup Google OAuth in Google Cloud console. Make sure to add Gmail API with the modify scope.
Add Google OAuth credentials in n8n. Make sure to add the n8n redirect URI to the Google Cloud Console consent screen settings.

AI agent that can scrape webpages
⚙️🛠️🚀🤖🦾
This template is a PoC of a ReAct AI Agent capable of fetching random pages (not only Wikipedia or Google search results).
On the top part there's a manual chat node connected to a LangChain ReAct Agent. The agent has access to a workflow tool for getting page content.
The page content extraction starts with converting query parameters into a JSON object. There are 3 pre-defined parameters:
url** – an address of the page to fetch
method** = full / simplified
maxlimit** - maximum length for the final page. For longer pages an error message is returned back to the agent
Page content fetching is a multistep process:
An HTTP Request mode tries to get the page content.
If the page content was successfuly retrieved, a series of post-processing begin:
Extract HTML BODY; content
Remove all unnecessary tags to recude the page size
Further eliminate external URLs and IMG scr values (based on the method query parameter)
Remaining HTML is converted to Markdown, thus recuding the page lengh even more while preserving the basic page structure
The remaining content is sent back to an Agent if it's not too long (maxlimit = 70000 by default, see CONFIG node).
NB:
You can isolate the HTTP Request part into a separate workflow.
Check the Workflow Tool description, it guides the agent to provide a query string with several parameters instead of a JSON object.
Please reach out to Eduard is you need further assistance with you n8n workflows and automations!
Note that to use this template, you need to be on n8n version 1.19.4 or later.

Telegram AI Chatbot
The workflow starts by listening for messages from Telegram users. The message is then processed, and based on its content, different actions are taken. If it's a regular chat message, the workflow generates a response using the OpenAI API and sends it back to the user. If it's a command to create an image, the workflow generates an image using the OpenAI API and sends the image to the user. If the command is unsupported, an error message is sent. Throughout the workflow, there are additional nodes for displaying notes and simulating typing actions.

Ask questions about a PDF using AI
The workflow first populates a Pinecone index with vectors from a Bitcoin whitepaper. Then, it waits for a manual chat message. When received, the chat message is turned into a vector and compared to the vectors in Pinecone. The most similar vectors are retrieved and passed to OpenAI for generating a chat response.
Note that to use this template, you need to be on n8n version 1.19.4 or later.
