Learn how to connect Awaz.ai with WhatsApp through WATI and Zapier for automated, personalized follow-up messages.

Updated over a month ago

Overview

The Awaz.ai–WhatsApp integration via WATI lets you send automated, personalized WhatsApp messages after AI calls, or trigger Awaz.ai calls based on incoming WhatsApp messages. This setup uses Zapier as the automation bridge and requires no coding.

By the end of this guide, you’ll know how to:

✔ Connect WATI to Zapier using your API key
✔ Create and use approved WhatsApp templates in WATI
✔ Map Awaz.ai call data into Zapier to personalize messages
✔ Automate WhatsApp follow-ups or inbound triggers


Scenario A: Awaz.ai → WhatsApp (Wati)

Automatically send WhatsApp messages to leads after an AI call completes.

Step 1 – Set up Digital Influencers (Awaz.ai) as the Trigger

  • In Zapier, create a new Zap.

  • Choose Digital Influencers as the trigger app.

  • Select an event such as New Call or Agent Trigger.

Step 2 – Connect WATI as the Action

  • For the Action, search for WATI.

  • Choose Send Template Message

  • Connect your WATI account by pasting your API key and endpoint URL (from WATI’s API Docs).

Step 3 – Use Approved Templates

  • In WATI, create and submit a WhatsApp template for approval.

  • Only approved templates can be triggered via Zapier.

  • Map variables like name, phone, or custom fields you have to personalize messages.

Example Template in WATI:

Hi {{name}}, thanks for chatting earlier. Here are some details we promised: {{details}}.

Step 4 – Map Call Data in Zapier

  • Use Awaz.ai call fields (e.g., contact name, location, notes) as inputs for template placeholders.

  • Use Custom Fields and After-Call Variables in Awaz.ai to capture specific details during the call.

  • Map these values in Zapier so they pass cleanly into WATI.

Step 5 – Test and Enable

  • Run a test Zap to confirm the WhatsApp message is delivered.

  • Publish the Zap to automate follow-ups for every AI call.


Scenario B: WhatsApp (Wati) → Awaz.ai

Trigger Awaz.ai calls or updates when a WhatsApp message is received.

Step 1 – Configure Wati Webhooks or Zapier Trigger

  • In Zapier, choose WATI as the trigger app.

  • Select an event like New Incoming Message.

Step 2 – Connect Digital Influencers (Awaz.ai) as the Action

  • Choose Digital Influencers as the action app.

  • Select actions such as Make a Call or Add or Update Contact

Step 3 – Map Message Data

  • Parse the inbound WhatsApp content or phone number.

  • Map this to Awaz.ai’s call inputs so the agent has context.

Step 4 – Test and Launch

  • Send a test WhatsApp message.

  • Confirm Awaz.ai initiates the correct call or action.

  • Enable the Zap when verified.

💡 Tip: Add filters in Zapier to only trigger calls for specific keywords like “call me” or “more info.”
