Evolution API

Overview

The node "Evolution API" allows interaction with the Evolution API service. It supports multiple resources and operations, including managing instances. Specifically, the "Desconectar Instancia" (Disconnect Instance) operation under the "Instancia" resource enables users to disconnect or log out a specified instance by its name. This is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically terminate sessions or connections associated with particular instances in the Evolution API environment.

For example, if you have an instance running that you want to safely disconnect via automation, this node operation can be used to trigger that logout process by specifying the instance's name.

Properties

Output

The node outputs a JSON array containing the result of the disconnect operation. The exact structure depends on the Evolution API response but generally includes confirmation or status information about the logout action performed on the specified instance.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Evolution API.
• The base URL for requests is set to https://doc.evolution-api.com/api-reference.
• Proper configuration of the API authentication within n8n credentials is necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Operation not supported error: If you receive an error stating the operation is not supported, verify that the resource and operation names are correctly set as "Instancia" and "Desconectar Instancia" respectively.
• Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to perform instance logout actions.
• Instance not found: If the specified instance name does not exist or is misspelled, the API may return an error or no effect. Double-check the instance name input.
• Network issues: Confirm network connectivity to the Evolution API endpoint.
