Building bot to WhatsApp Cloud

Describe the issue/error/question

I’m trying to build a bot for WhatsApp Cloud bot.
I’ve managed to get incoming message by Webhook node and reply it by WhatsApp node.
What I need now is:

  • ability to flag the steps of the bot, so I could send the right message based on the recipient stage \ step.
  • abilty to flag the recipient final bot step time, so if the recipient will send another message after bot finished, in period of 24h, the bot will not start again.

I know I can do it with 3rd DB node, but I’m trying to find a way to avoid it and use the local n8n resources.

Anyone can help me on that?

Thanks a lot!

Please share the workflow

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: [email protected]
  • Database you’re using (default: SQLite): none
  • Running n8n with the execution process [own(default), main]: own
  • Running n8n via [Docker, npm, n8n.cloud, desktop app]: n8n.cloud

Hi @Maor, I think an external database is your best bet here. n8n doesn’t have an easy-to-use storage built-in. You could consider using the static workflow data, but this wouldn’t be available when manually running your workflow and is hard to query compared to a proper database.
