Example: auto-reply with AI

A common workflow: receive a WhatsApp message via webhook, enrich it with conversation context, send it to an LLM, and reply.

Webhook Trigger → wakit (Get Context) → OpenAI (Chat) → wakit (Send Text)

Step by step:

Webhook node — receives the incoming message event from wakit (configure a webhook in Settings > Webhooks pointing to your n8n webhook URL, table messages, operation insert)
wakit node (Get Context) — takes the conversation_id from the webhook payload and fetches the full message history with contact info
OpenAI node — sends the conversation history as context and gets a response
wakit node (Send Text) — sends the AI response back to the conversation

Get Context output

The Get Context operation returns a single object with the full conversation:

{
  "conversation_id": "conv-123",
  "contact": {
    "name": "María García",
    "address": "+5491155551234",
    "id": "contact-456"
  },
  "message_count": 12,
  "messages": [
    {
      "id": "msg-1",
      "direction": "incoming",
      "content": { "kind": "text", "text": "Hola, necesito ayuda" },
      "status": { "received": "2026-05-07T10:00:00Z" },
      "created_at": "2026-05-07T10:00:00Z",
      "agent_id": null
    },
    {
      "id": "msg-2",
      "direction": "outgoing",
      "content": { "kind": "text", "text": "¡Hola María! ¿En qué te puedo ayudar?" },
      "status": { "sent": "2026-05-07T10:00:05Z" },

      "agent_id": "agent-789"
    }
  ]
}
