Title

Workflow name
Auto-generate WhatsApp proposals from voice or text using GPT & APITemplate

How it works • Transcribes a WhatsApp voice or text message from a prospect using Whisper or GPT • Extracts key information (name, need, context, urgency) via AI • Matches the most relevant service pack by comparing the prospect’s need with Airtable data • Dynamically fills a branded template via APITEMPLATE (HTML or PDF) • Generates a clean, personalized business proposal — including dynamic links (payment, calendar, etc.) • Sends the final PDF back instantly via WhatsApp or email

Set up steps • ⏱ Estimated setup time: 45–60 minutes • ✅ You’ll need:  ◦ WhatsApp Business Cloud API access (with webhook configured)  ◦ OpenAI API key (Whisper + GPT)  ◦ Airtable (to store service packs and client input)  ◦ APITEMPLATE account (template with placeholders like {{nom}}, {{prix}}, {{lien_reservation}}, etc.)  ◦ n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted)

• 📦 Create your service packs in Airtable with associated links (Stripe, Calendly…) • 🔗 The proposal auto-includes these links dynamically inside the PDF • 🚀 Workflow orchestrates the end-to-end process: from WhatsApp input to PDF delivery

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/5656/5656.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
