WhatsApp Group Onboarding: Welcome Messages & Airtable Points

This n8n workflow triggers on a webhook from Whapi when a new participant joins a specified WhatsApp group. It filters events to ensure only additions to the correct group proceed, preventing unnecessary actions.

Upon validation, it sends a customized welcome message via Whapi, outlining group rules, point-earning opportunities, and weekly raffles to boost immediate engagement.

Finally, it creates a new Airtable record for the participant, capturing their WhatsApp ID, starting with 100 engagement points, and setting the last interaction date to today. This streamlines onboarding, fosters community participation, and maintains a centralized engagement database.

Ideal for community managers, marketers, or businesses running WhatsApp groups for promotions, support, or loyalty programs. Benefits include time savings on manual welcomes, consistent user experience, and scalable tracking for rewards systems.
