Hello everyone,

I’m having a problem with the Facebook Meta webhook integrated with n8n. In addition to receiving the correct message back, the webhook is sending other unwanted messages, such as marketing campaigns. The big problem is that I’m being charged for each message received in n8n, which is making it unfeasible to use.

For example, if I need to send 200 messages via WhatsApp, I end up receiving more than 4 additional messages for each send on the webhook, totaling almost a thousand messages. As each run on the n8n is charged, the costs are becoming exorbitant.

I would like to know if anyone has experienced something similar and if there is a solution to filter out these unwanted messages or a setting in n8n that can reduce or eliminate these excessive charges.

Any help would be very welcome.

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

Hey @garre,

Welcome to the community :tada:

If you are getting multiple executions it sounds like WhatsApp is sending it multiple times and you may need to find an option in WhatsApp to reduce the amount of data it is sending assuming our WhatsApp trigger node doesn’t do what you need.
