Integrations and API

WhatsApp API Integrations
for UAE and GCC Businesses

Connect WhatsApp to every system your business runs. REST API, HMAC-signed webhooks, Google Sheets, n8n, Meta Conversions API, Zapier, and Make. Your WhatsApp data where you need it.

What It Is

WhatsApp API and Integrations
That Connect Your Whole Stack.

UAE businesses that treat WhatsApp as an isolated tool lose the compounding value of connecting it to every other system they run. Captured leads that never make it to the CRM. Broadcast audiences that are never updated from the booking system. Conversion events that never reach Meta for ad attribution. Every disconnected system costs money in inefficiency and lost performance.

Zena WhatsApp API integrations connect your WhatsApp operation to your CRM, your automation platform, your analytics stack, and your ad campaigns. REST API for developers, webhooks for real-time data push, Google Sheets for teams that prefer spreadsheets, n8n for automation builders, and Meta Conversions API for performance marketers running Click to WhatsApp campaigns.

Capabilities

Every Integration Your WhatsApp
Stack Needs

Connect Zena to your CRM, automation tools, ad platform, and any custom system your team runs.

REST API

Read-only REST API is available on Growth plans covering contacts, leads, conversations, and messages. Full read and write REST API is available on Business plans: create contacts, send messages, update lead status, and trigger broadcasts programmatically from any external system. API keys are created in your dashboard and scoped to your tenant only.

Outbound Webhooks

Configure outbound webhooks to push real-time data to any endpoint when specific events occur in Zena. Five webhook events are available: lead captured, message received, conversation created, conversation resolved, and new contact created. All webhooks are signed with HMAC-SHA256 for verified delivery. Available on Business plans.

Inbound Webhooks

Trigger actions in Zena from any external system via inbound webhooks. Fire a broadcast campaign when a booking is confirmed. Start a chatflow when a payment is processed. Update a lead status when an opportunity moves in your CRM. Any system that can make an HTTP POST request can trigger actions in Zena. Available on Growth and Business plans.

Google Sheets Integration

Connect any Google Sheet as a broadcast audience that syncs automatically before every campaign. Use Google Sheets as a data source for contact imports and audience segmentation. When a new row is added to a connected sheet, a broadcast can fire automatically. Available on Growth and Business plans for teams that manage data in spreadsheets.

n8n Community Node

Zena has an official n8n community node that lets you build automation workflows connecting WhatsApp to any of the 400+ services n8n supports. Trigger n8n workflows from Zena events. Push data from n8n into Zena. Build complex multi-step automations without writing custom API code. Available on Growth and Business plans.

Meta Conversions API

Send WhatsApp conversion events directly to Meta via the Conversions API for Click to WhatsApp campaigns. When a lead is captured on WhatsApp, the conversion event goes to Meta immediately. Your ad campaigns get accurate attribution data, your cost per lead reporting is correct, and Meta optimises your ad delivery for more WhatsApp conversions. Available on Growth and Business plans.

Zapier and Make via Webhooks

Connect Zena to Zapier or Make using inbound and outbound webhooks. No dedicated Zapier app needed. Use Zena webhook events to trigger Zaps and Scenarios. Send data from Zapier and Make to Zena via inbound webhooks. Connect WhatsApp to any of the thousands of apps available on both platforms.

Webhook Node in Chatflows

Call any external API from inside a WhatsApp chatflow using the webhook node. Check stock levels, retrieve account balances, push booking data to your calendar system, or send a notification to Slack when a high-value lead is captured. The chatflow waits for the API response and branches based on the result. Available on Business plans.

Platform

Integrations Connect
Every Feature to Your Stack.

The API and webhooks expose every feature in Zena to the systems your team already uses.

WhatsApp Team Inbox

Send messages via REST API from any external system. Trigger automated responses from your CRM when a specific event occurs in your pipeline.

Bilingual AI Chatbot

Feed knowledge base documents from external systems via API. Connect the chatbot to your product database for real-time stock and pricing answers.

AI Lead Capture

The lead captured webhook pushes every new lead to your CRM, Google Sheets, or n8n workflow in real time the moment the lead capture flow completes.

Chatflow Builder

Webhook nodes inside chatflows call external APIs mid-conversation. Inbound webhooks trigger chatflows from external events like payments or bookings.

Bulk Broadcasting

Trigger broadcast campaigns via API from your booking system, e-commerce platform, or CRM when specific customer events occur automatically.

CRM and Contacts

Push contact data to any external CRM via outbound webhooks. Pull contact data into Zena via REST API. Keep your WhatsApp CRM in sync with your main customer database.

Message Templates

Send template messages via REST API from any external system. Trigger appointment reminders from your booking platform or order updates from your e-commerce system.

Team Management

Only Admin roles can create and manage API keys and webhook configurations. All API calls are scoped to the tenant and logged in the audit trail on Business plans.

Number Management

Specify which WhatsApp number to send from via API parameters. Different business lines can trigger messages from different numbers via the same API integration.

Owner AI Companions

Connect your Owner AI Companion to n8n workflows via the n8n integration to build content pipelines and business intelligence workflows on your personal WhatsApp.

Security

All API keys are encrypted with AES-256. Webhooks are signed with HMAC-SHA256. Every API call is authenticated and scoped to your tenant. No cross-tenant data access is possible via API.
