Hello everyone, I’m really hoping you can help me with this problem, sorry I’m very new into automation.
I am trying to set up an API to access my Pickaxe from outside the platform, i.e web application. I can only think an N8N post request will work in this situation. I would like to have the ability to use my Pickaxe within Telegram and WhatsApp.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Brett
@brett1321 unfortunately there are no APIs yet that allow you to interact with the pickaxes from external applications.
I have viewed your video regarding make.com webhooks and I can see you showed returned data from airtable back within pickaxe. If I can get a user to start a convo via pickaxe, then in the conversation, “suggest” to continue message in WhatsApp. Provide contact number, then set a trigger on N8n to start message via WhatsApp. Would I be right in saying if the client leaves the webchat open on their browser. I could create a feed back loop which continues to pull info/answers directly from pickaxe and import into the convo on WhatsApp. Would you be able to help confirm if that’s possible in N8N and how they workflow might look. Thanks Brett
Hi @brett1321, I’m not too familiar with n8n but I assume it is similar to Make.com. Between the webhook module and the webhook response returning data to Pickaxe you can add anything you like. The only thing you need to be considering is the timeout error you get if it takes too long to receive the response
