Quepasa (Whatsapp)

Non Official Whatsapp API

Actions10

Overview

The Quepasa (Whatsapp) node for n8n allows you to interact with the non-official Quepasa WhatsApp API.
For the Message resource and Find operation, this node retrieves information about a specific WhatsApp message by its unique Message ID.
This is useful in scenarios where you need to look up details of a previously sent or received message, such as checking delivery status, content, sender/receiver info, or other metadata.

Practical examples:

  • Fetching message details for audit or logging purposes.
  • Verifying if a message was delivered/read.
  • Integrating WhatsApp message data into CRM or support workflows.

Properties

Name Type Meaning
Authentication options Selects how to authenticate: either by entering parameters manually or using credentials.
BaseUrl string The base URL of the Quepasa API (required if using manual parameters).
Token string The token for your WhatsApp bot (required if using manual parameters).
Message ID string The unique identifier of the WhatsApp message to find.

Output

The output is a JSON object containing the details of the requested WhatsApp message.
The structure typically includes fields such as:

{
  "id": "string",          // Unique message ID
  "from": "string",        // Sender's number or ID
  "to": "string",          // Recipient's number or ID
  "timestamp": "string",   // When the message was sent
  "status": "string",      // Delivery/read status
  "body": "string",        // Message content
  // ...other metadata depending on API response
}

Note: The exact fields depend on the Quepasa API response.

Dependencies

  • External Service: Requires access to the Quepasa WhatsApp API.
  • Authentication: Either via direct parameters (BaseUrl + Token) or predefined n8n credentials (quepasaTokenAuthApi).
  • n8n Configuration: If using predefined credentials, ensure they are set up in n8n under the correct credential type.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues:

  • Invalid Token or BaseUrl: Ensure the token and base URL are correct and correspond to your Quepasa instance.
  • Message Not Found: If the Message ID does not exist, the API may return an error or empty result.
  • Network Errors: Connectivity issues between n8n and the Quepasa API endpoint.

Error Messages:

  • "Authentication failed": Check your token and base URL or credential configuration.
  • "Message not found": Verify the Message ID is correct and exists in your WhatsApp account.
  • "Request failed with status code XXX": Indicates an HTTP error; check API availability and input parameters.
