ChatAgent for n8n
Use ChatAgent as your managed WhatsApp gateway inside n8n. Your workflows, our inbox, templates, and Meta connection.
n8n is an automation integration, not a messaging channel. The ChatAgent community node lets your n8n workflows react to ChatAgent events and send messages through the WhatsApp number already connected in ChatAgent. The Meta connection, templates, and team inbox stay in ChatAgent.
How the n8n node connects
Create an API key
Generate an API key in ChatAgent settings and add it as a ChatAgent credential in n8n.
Install the community node
In n8n, open Settings → Community Nodes and install the ChatAgent node. Self-hosted and n8n Cloud both support community nodes.
Build the workflow
Use the ChatAgent trigger to start a flow from ChatAgent events, and ChatAgent actions to send messages back on WhatsApp.
What you get from the n8n integration
Managed WhatsApp gateway
No separate Cloud API app, webhook server, or token rotation. ChatAgent holds the Meta connection.
Same inbox
Messages sent from n8n show up in the ChatAgent inbox, so your team sees the full conversation.
Your own logic
Connect ChatAgent to the sheets, databases, and tools you already run in n8n.
Not a channel
n8n does not count toward your plan’s channel limit. WhatsApp, Instagram, and website chat are the channels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need my own WhatsApp Cloud API app?
No. Connect WhatsApp in ChatAgent first; the n8n node sends through that connection.
Does it work on self-hosted n8n?
Yes. Community nodes install on self-hosted n8n and on n8n Cloud.
Does ChatAgent sync Shopify or other stores through n8n?
Not natively. You can build that flow yourself in n8n; ChatAgent provides the messaging side.
