# Notifier Integration with n8n
Notifier enables you to send automated WhatsApp messages through your favorite workflow automation tools. This guide walks you through integrating Notifier with n8n to create powerful messaging workflows
## Prerequisites
Before getting started, make sure you have:
Active Notifier account with a subscription plan (Monthly or Pay-as-you-go)
Access to [n8n](https://app.n8n.cloud/login) workflow automation platform
New to Notifier? [Sign up here](https://notifier.whatsable.app/)
## Set up your Notifier account
First, let's set up your business profile in Notifier:
1. Log in to your Notifier dashboard
2. Navigate to **Business Information**
3. Complete all required fields:
* **Business Name**: Enter the name that will appear in messages sent to recipients
* **Business Website or Social Media**: Add your website or social media URL
* **Preferred Language**: Select the language for standard WhatsApp message elements
* **Default Reply Text**: Create a template message that appears when recipients click "Reply"
* **WhatsApp Number**: Add your business WhatsApp number where replies will be directed
After entering your WhatsApp number, Notifier will send a verification code to this number. Enter the code to verify ownership.
Once saved, you'll see a preview of how your messages will appear to recipients. The actual message structure may vary slightly based on variables and attachments you include.
To connect Notifier with n8n, you'll need your API key:
1. In your Notifier dashboard, go to **API Keys**
2. Copy your unique API key
3. Store it securely—you'll need it for the integration
Never share your API key publicly or commit it to version control systems.
## Connect Notifier to n8n
Now that you have your Notifier account configured, let's connect it to n8n to automate your messaging workflows.
1. Log in to your n8n account
2. Create a new workflow/Zap by clicking **+ Create**
3. Add a trigger node of your choice:
* Popular triggers include Google Forms, Jotform, ClickUp, or a Schedule trigger
* Connect and configure your trigger according to your use case
The WhatsAble trigger node enables your workflow to respond automatically to incoming WhatsApp messages. This setup is optional but recommended for building reactive communication flows.
Follow these steps to add the WhatsAble trigger node to your workflow:
1. Click the **+** button in your workflow canvas to add a new node
2. Search for "WhatsAble" in the node library search bar
3. Select the node displaying the official WhatsAble logo
4. From the available trigger options, choose **On new Incoming message event**
The trigger node will automatically listen for incoming messages and initiate your workflow when a new message is received.
Set up your WhatsAble API credentials to establish a secure connection:
**Webhook URL Configuration:**
1. In the WhatsAble Trigger node parameters, locate the **Webhook URLs** section at the top
2. Select **Production URL** and copy the generated URL by clicking on it
3. Store this URL securely as you'll need it for the credential setup
**Credential Creation:**
1. In the **Credential to connect with** dropdown, click **+ Create new credential**
2. Select **WhatsAble Notifier API** as your connection method
3. Enter your Notifier by WhatsAble API key in the **API Key** field
4. Paste the Production URL you copied earlier into the **Production URL** field
5. Assign a descriptive name to your credential (e.g., "WhatsAble Production")
6. Click **Save** to securely store your credentials
Your API credentials are encrypted and stored securely. Never share your API key publicly or commit it to version control.
Complete the setup by testing and activating your trigger:
**Response Configuration:**
1. In the **Respond** dropdown, select your preferred response timing:
* **Immediately**: Responds as soon as the trigger fires
* **When Last Node Finishes**: Waits for the entire workflow to complete before responding
**Testing:**
1. Click **Execute step** on the WhatsAble node to run a test
2. Verify the connection is working by checking for a success confirmation
3. Review any error messages if the test fails and adjust your configuration accordingly
Once activated, your workflow will automatically process incoming messages according to your configured logic.
Remember to test your workflow thoroughly before activating it in production to ensure it behaves as expected.
1. Click the **+** button to add a new node
2. Search for "WhatsAble" in the node library
3. Select the node with the official WhatsAble logo
4. After selecting the WhatsAble node, choose 'Send message via notifier' from the available actions menu
1. In the WhatsAble node **Parameters**, find the **Credential to connect with** dropdown
2. Select **+ Create new credential**
3. Enter your Notifier API key that you copied earlier
4. Name your credential (e.g., "Notifier Production")
5. Click **Save** to store your credential
1. In **Resource** dropdown, select **Send Message**
2. In the **Operation** dropdown, select **Send Message Via Notifier**
3. Complete the required fields:
Enter the recipient's phone number (with country code) or use dynamic data from previous nodes
Type your message text or use variables from previous nodes
Enter the URL of the file, image, or video you want to send with your message or use variables from previous nodes
Specify a custom filename for your attachment
1. Click **Test Step** on the Notifier node to verify it's working correctly
2. If the test is successful, you'll see a confirmation message
3. Return to your workflow
4. Click **Save** to save your entire workflow
5. Toggle the **Active** switch in the top-right corner to activate your workflow
Congratulations! Your Notifier and n8n integration is now complete! Your automated messaging workflow is now operational! Whenever your trigger conditions are met, n8n will automatically send WhatsApp messages through Notifier.
