How do I send a Chatwoot message?

Short answer: You can send message in Chatwoot by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Chatwoot Send Message action to a workflow, map its 4 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Send Message.

What does the Send Message action do in Chatwoot?
Posts a customer-facing reply (outgoing) or an internal team note (private). Routes via the conversation's originating channel by default. Useful for "AI-drafted response posted as private note for agent review" or for full-auto reply workflows on low-complexity tickets.
What inputs does Send Message require?
Required: Account ID, Conversation ID, Message. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Chatwoot returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Chatwoot returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Send Message support batch operations?
Run Send Message inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Chatwoot's rate limits.
