Overview

This node interacts with the Evolution API to perform operations related to groups. Specifically, the 'Create Group' operation allows users to create a new group within an instance by specifying the instance name, group name, optional description, and participant phone numbers. This is useful for automating group management tasks such as setting up communication groups or managing user collections in applications that integrate with the Evolution API.

Use Case Examples

  1. Creating a new chat group by providing the instance name, group name, description, and a list of participant phone numbers.
  2. Automating the creation of user groups for marketing or notification purposes within an application connected to the Evolution API.

Properties

Name Meaning
Instance Name The name of the instance that will create the group, required to identify the context for group creation.
Group Name The name of the group to be created, used to identify the group within the instance.
Description An optional description for the group, providing additional context or details about the group.
Participants A comma-separated list of participant phone numbers to be added to the group, required to specify group members.

Output

JSON

  • id - The unique identifier of the created group.
  • subject - The name of the created group.
  • description - The description of the created group, if provided.
  • participants - The list of participant phone numbers included in the group.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for the Evolution API to authenticate requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure that the instance name and group name are correctly specified and not empty, as they are required fields.
  • Verify that participant phone numbers are correctly formatted and separated by commas to avoid request errors.
  • Check API authentication credentials if the node fails to connect or returns authorization errors.
  • If the operation is unsupported or the function is not found, verify that the resource and operation parameters are correctly set to 'Group' and 'Create Group' respectively.
