How It Works
This workflow automates personalized WhatsApp message template delivery triggered by events in KlickTipp or by messages sent to the Whatsapp Business account. When a contact triggers an Outbound, the workflow uses a pre-approved WhatsApp message template to send dynamic, real-time messages through the WhatsApp Business Cloud API. When receiving messages it checks whether a cancellation should be processed or if a auto-response is sent.
This setup is ideal for time-sensitive campaigns such as:
- Birthday greetings
- Discount or promo notifications
- Follow-ups on product or service interest
