[Feature] Passing Sender's Phone Number to Typebot via Waha + N8N Integration

[dohkotechnology]

I’m currently using Waha, N8N, and Typebot in my workflow to collect user data (such as Name and Email) and save it in a CRM. However, I haven’t figured out a way to send the sender’s phone number to Typebot as well.

Since Waha and N8N already capture the phone number, is there a way to pass it to Typebot within the integration? If so, could you guide me on how to implement this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

The message event has payload.from field with phone number, you need to use that somehow in n8n and send it to TypeBot

{
  "event": "message",
  "session": "default",
  "engine": "WEBJS",
  "payload": {
    "id": "true_11111111111@c.us_AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
    "timestamp": 1667561485,
    "from": "11111111111@c.us",
    "fromMe": true,
    "to": "11111111111@c.us",
    "body": "Hi there!",
    "hasMedia": false,
    "ack": 1,
    "vCards": [],
    "_data": {
        ...
    }
  }
}

You'll need to use prefilledVariables in startChat node and pass phone there
Here's related issue, at the time we made template it didn't work, likely now you can do that!

I've moved the issue from https://github.com/devlikeapro/waha to templates repo (https://github.com/devlikeapro/waha-n8n-templates)

We'll add it later in the template (no ETA tho)
