Video Demo: Click here to see a video of this workflow in action. Summary Description: The "IT Department Q&A Workflow" is designed to streamline and automate the process of handling IT-related inquiries from employees through Slack. When an employee sends a direct message (DM) to the IT department's Slack channel, the workflow is triggered. The initial step involves the "Receive DMs" node, which listens for new messages. Upon receiving a message, the workflow verifies the webhook by responding to Slack's challenge request, ensuring that the communication channel is active and secure. Once the webhook is verified, the workflow checks if the message sender is a bot using the "Check if Bot" node. If the sender is identified as a bot, the workflow terminates the process to avoid unnecessary actions. If the sender is a human, the workflow sends an acknowledgment message back to the user, confirming that their query is being processed. This is achieved through the "Send Initial Message" node, which posts a simple message like "On it!" to the user's Slack channel.

Answer customer questions on WhatsApp with OpenAI, Gmail, and Google Sheets

Quick overview This workflow answers incoming WhatsApp customer questions using an OpenAI-powered agent that reads your live website via HTTP requests, escalates unclear or sensitive cases to your support team via Gmail, and logs each conversation to Google Sheets. How it works Triggers when a new WhatsApp message is received. Loads configuration values (company name, website root URL, AI model, language rules, escalation email, and WhatsApp phone number ID) and extracts the customer phone number and message text. Ignores non-text WhatsApp updates (such as images, audio, and status messages). Uses OpenAI with conversation memory to navigate your website by listing links and fetching relevant pages, then generates a structured result containing an answer, escalation flag, sentiment, topic, and source URLs. If the agent marks the request as needing a human, sends an escalation email via Gmail to your support address with the customer details and the drafted reply. Sends the final plain-text reply back to the customer on WhatsApp. Appends the conversation details to a Google Sheets log.

Handle WhatsApp support text and voice messages with OpenAI GPT-5 Mini

Quick overview This workflow responds to incoming WhatsApp Business messages, handling both text and voice notes by transcribing audio with OpenAI and replying with an OpenAI chat agent that uses per-contact conversation memory and answers only from the business information you provide. How it works Triggers when a new WhatsApp message is received. Routes the incoming message by type, sending text messages directly to the support flow, audio messages to a voice-transcription flow, and other message types to a fallback reply. For voice notes, retrieves the WhatsApp media URL, downloads the audio file, and transcribes it to text with OpenAI. Sends the customer’s text (original or transcribed) to an OpenAI chat agent configured to answer only using your provided business information. Stores and reuses a per-contact conversation history keyed by the sender’s WhatsApp number to maintain context across messages. Sends the agent’s response back to the customer as a WhatsApp text message. Setup Connect WhatsApp Business Cloud credentials for both receiving messages (trigger) and sending replies, and ensure your WhatsApp webhook is configured to point to the trigger URL.
