Perform chat operations with DinastiAPI WhatsApp API

Actions6

Overview

This node integrates with the DinastiAPI WhatsApp API to perform various chat-related operations. Specifically, for the "Delete Message" operation, it allows users to delete a message they have previously sent by specifying the message ID. This is useful in scenarios where you want to programmatically remove messages from a WhatsApp conversation, such as retracting incorrect information or cleaning up chat history.

Practical example:

  • Automatically deleting a message that contains sensitive information after a certain workflow step completes.
  • Removing outdated notifications sent via WhatsApp to keep conversations relevant.
