New feature
WhatsApp rules can now call another API
The new Call another API action sends lead and message data to Zapier, Make, n8n, or your CRM when a rule matches.
- WhatsApp rules have a new action: Call another API. It sends a request to an API in another system when a rule matches.
- You choose the method (
POST,PUT,PATCH, orGET), a publichttpsaddress, headers, and authentication. - The request body uses lead and message variables, for example
{{lead.name}}and{{message.text}}. The editor checks that the result is valid JSON. - Konektor stores headers, tokens, and passwords in encrypted form. After you save, the page shows only the last 4 characters.
- Konektor tries again up to 3 times when the API answers 408, 429, or 5xx, or when the request times out. Other 4xx answers are not tried again.
- Each request carries the header
X-Konektor-Rule-Run-Id. Use this ID to drop duplicate requests. - This action runs for messages from QR sessions and partner channels.
