🔍 What It Does

Listens for @mentions of your bot in Discord channels (without a native trigger).

Filters noise: Only processes messages:

    From authorized users (configurable).

    That mention your bot.

    Sent today (skips old messages).

Forwards cleaned messages to any webhook (e.g., your AI agent, like the GitHub MCP Server).

Replies in Discord with the webhook’s response.

🛠️ Key Features

⚡ No Community Nodes: Uses official n8n nodes only (security-first!).

🔒 Role-Based Access: Restrict bot usage to specific users.

🗑️ Deduplication: Avoids processing the same message twice.

🔄 Scheduled Checks: Runs every X minutes (adjustable in the Schedule Trigger).

🚀 Use Cases

Chat with your AI bot via Discord mentions.

Moderate channels: Auto-flag messages or ping moderators.

Build custom commands: Trigger workflows by mentioning your bot.

⚙️ Setup Guide

🤖 Update Credentials: Ensure your Discord bot has Read Messages and Send Messages permissions.

🔧 Configure Variables: In the "Set Values" node:

    discordServerId: Your server’s ID.

    botId: Your bot’s user ID.

    authorizedUser: Who can trigger the bot (user ID).

🌐 Webhook Target: Point the HTTP Request node to your AI/webhook endpoint.

⏱️ Adjust Polling: Change the Schedule Trigger interval (default: every minute).

Note: This polls channels instead of true event-based triggers—tradeoffs time for security!

Re-engage missed property viewings with Google Calendar, Gemini, Gmail, and WhatsApp

## Quick overview When a buyer misses a scheduled viewing, this workflow automatically sends an AI-personalized follow-up by email and WhatsApp using Google Gemini, then logs the outcome to Google Sheets, recovering leads that would otherwise go cold. ## How it works 1. Triggers every 15 minutes when a Google Calendar event is updated in the selected viewings calendar. 2. Checks the event title/summary and continues only if it contains the tag “no-show”. 3. Extracts the lead’s name, email, phone, property address, and scheduled viewing time from the calendar event details. 4. Sends the lead and viewing context to Google Gemini to generate an email message and a WhatsApp message in JSON format. 5. Parses and cleans the AI output into safe HTML for email and a trimmed plain-text WhatsApp message. 6. Sends the re-engagement email via Gmail and appends the follow-up outcome to a Google Sheets log. 7. If a phone number is available, sends the WhatsApp message and updates a Google Sheets status field to record that WhatsApp was sent. ## Setup 1. Connect credentials for Google Calendar, Gmail, Google Sheets, and a Google Gemini (PaLM) API key. 2. Select the correct Google Calendar (viewings calendar) and ensure missed appointments are consistently tagged with “no-show” in the event summary. 3. Create or choose a Google Sheets document and sheet, then fill in the document ID/URL, sheet name, and the columns expected by the append/update logging steps. 4. Configure WhatsApp credentials in n8n (or disable the WhatsApp branch) and ensure lead phone numbers are stored in the calendar event description in the expected format (e.g., Name: ... | Email: ... | Phone: ... |). ## Requirements - Before running this workflow, create a Google Sheet with these exact column headers: Record ID | Lead Name | Email | Phone | Property Address | Original Viewing Time | Email Sent | WhatsApp Sent | Email Message Text | WhatsApp Message Text | Timestamp ## Customization - Edit the AI prompt in "Draft Re-Engagement Messages" to change tone or language - Add SMS or other channels by duplicating the WhatsApp branch pattern - Adjust the "no-show" tag keyword if your calendar uses different terminology ## Additional info WhatsApp is optional. If you don't have WhatsApp Business Cloud API credentials, disable that branch — the email follow-up will still send normally. This template assumes calendar events are tagged with "no-show" in the title and include lead contact info in the event description (Name: ... | Email: ... | Phone: ... |).

Manage Google Calendar events with Zalo Bot, OpenAI and Gemini

## Quick Overview This workflow lets users manage Google Calendar by sending text or voice messages to a Zalo Official Account bot, transcribing voice notes with Google Gemini and using an OpenAI-powered agent to create, update, list, or delete events, then replying in Zalo with the result. ## How it works 1. Receives an incoming text or voice message through a Zalo Bot trigger. 2. Sends a typing indicator back to the Zalo chat and normalizes key message fields (chat ID, type, text, and voice URL). 3. If the message is a voice note, sends the audio URL to Google Gemini to transcribe it into text. 4. Sends the combined text/transcription to an OpenAI chat model agent that interprets the request in Vietnamese and decides whether to list, create, update, or delete a Google Calendar event. 5. Uses Google Calendar tools to get events and then create, update, or delete the targeted event based on the agent’s extracted parameters. 6. Sends the agent’s Markdown-formatted response back to the user in Zalo, and posts an error message to Zalo if the agent run fails. ## Setup 1. Install the community node package `n8n-nodes-zalo-bot-official` and restart n8n if required. 2. Connect your Zalo Bot API credentials and configure the Zalo webhook URL in your Zalo Official Account so incoming messages reach this workflow. 3. Add a Google Calendar OAuth2 credential and set the target calendar account (currently configured as `[email protected]`) for all calendar operations. 4. Add a Google Gemini (PaLM) API credential for audio transcription and ensure voice messages include a reachable `voice_url`. 5. Add an OpenAI API credential, select the chat model you want to use (currently `gpt-5-mini`), and adjust the system prompt/tone if needed.

Track post-therapy wellness with GPT-4o-mini, Telegram, Slack and Sheets

## Quick Overview This workflow uses Google Sheets, OpenAI, Telegram, and Slack to send post-therapy check-in messages, analyze patient replies for sentiment and risk, alert therapists to at-risk responses, and log non-urgent replies for ongoing wellness tracking. ## How it works 1. Runs every hour on a schedule trigger. 2. Reads session records from Google Sheets and keeps only sessions that have a session date and have not been marked as check-in sent. 3. Uses OpenAI (gpt-4o-mini) to generate a personalized, non-clinical Telegram check-in message from the patient’s session details. 4. Sends the check-in to the patient via Telegram and updates the Google Sheets session row to store the message and mark the check-in as sent. 5. Triggers on incoming Telegram messages, looks up the patient in a Google Sheets master list by Telegram ID, and selects the most relevant recent session to provide context. 6. Sends the patient reply and session context to OpenAI for JSON-formatted sentiment classification and parses the result into structured fields. 7. If the sentiment is classified as at-risk, posts an urgent alert to a Slack channel; otherwise, appends the reply and sentiment details to a Google Sheets wellness log. ## Setup 1. Connect Google Sheets OAuth credentials and update the spreadsheet document ID and sheet names for Sessions, Patients_Master, and Wellness_Log. 2. Create and connect a Telegram bot credential, set up the Telegram trigger webhook, and ensure patient Telegram chat IDs are stored in Google Sheets. 3. Add an OpenAI API key credential and confirm the selected model (gpt-4o-mini) meets your requirements. 4. Connect Slack OAuth credentials and replace the placeholder Slack channel ID used for therapist alerts, and confirm the error-alert channel is set correctly. 5. Verify your Google Sheets columns match the workflow’s expected fields (for example session_id, checkin_sent, checkin_message_sent, therapist_slack_id) before activating.
