How do I send a Kustomer message?
Short answer: You can send kustomer message in Kustomer by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Kustomer Send Kustomer 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 Kustomer Message.
What does the Send Kustomer Message action do in Kustomer?

What happens if Kustomer returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Kustomer 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 Kustomer Message support batch operations?
Run Send Kustomer 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 Kustomer's rate limits.
