Connect n8n, Make & Zapier

For n8n, use the native SocialMate node — it’s the fastest path (typed operations plus a trigger that registers its own webhook). For Make, Zapier, or your own code, SocialMate is a standard HTTP API plus webhooks, so it drops in anywhere with the two-way pattern below.

Sending (platform → SocialMate)

Use an HTTP Request node:

POST  https://your-tunnel-url/v1/accounts/ACCOUNT_ID/messages
Header  x-api-key: YOUR_KEY
Body  { "chatId": "15551234567", "text": "Order #1024 shipped 📦" }

Point it at your named tunnel URL so the cloud platform can reach your machine.

Receiving (SocialMate → platform)

Create a Webhook trigger in your platform, copy its URL, and add it as a SocialMate webhook endpoint. Now inbound messages and events flow straight into your workflow.
