Community connector for Okou

Connect Community to send compliant SMS and WhatsApp messages, invite or update members, manage custom member data, and maintain subcommunities.

Communication · API Token

Use Community in Okou

Use Community's Async REST API for explicit SMS or WhatsApp sends, member invites and updates, custom member data, opt-outs, memberships, and subcommunity management.

Once connected, supported Community actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.

What you can do with Community

  • Send a direct SMS or WhatsApp message; delivery is an external communication effect and may consume provider messaging capacity.
  • Create or update primitive custom fields on a member profile.
  • Create a subcommunity with a title and optional description, color, or keywords.
  • Opt a member out of the Community program and trigger Community's final confirmation message.
  • Add or remove an automatic-assignment keyword from a subcommunity.
  • Invite a new member or update an existing member using the phone number as the key.
  • Apply a delta update to an existing subcommunity.
  • Add or remove a member from a subcommunity by tag ID or tag name.
