### 1. Set the trigger

Set a trigger to monitor incoming messages. You will be provided with a WebHook URL that you will need to set in your channel settings. You can do this in the dashboard interface.

Your scenario will now take into account incoming messages to your WhatsApp. You need to add some action after that!

### 2. Add an action

To use any method from our gateway, select the “**Custom API Request (Beta)**” Action. Performs an arbitrary authorized API call. A universal method that will allow you to perform any function from our documentation. Available when creating a Workflow in the classic Builder.

To use custom API Endpoint, copy the request method (POST/GET/DELETE) from our [documentation](https://whapi.readme.io/reference/createstory), as well as the parameters for the request. This way you can automate any API method.

In the *API ENDPOINT URL* field, you need to add an endpoint. For example it could be: <https://gate.whapi.cloud/messages/text>, <https://gate.whapi.cloud/messages/story>, etc. You can look up the endpoint in our documentation:

In the *REQUEST METHOD* field, all you have to do is specify the request method (POST/PUT/GET/DELETE)

In *DATA*, it remains to specify the request parameters in JSON format. It is most convenient to copy them from our [documentation](https://whapi.readme.io/reference/sendmessagetext). Some methods may require adding Headers: content-type: application/json
