Overview

The node "Evolution API" provides integration with the Evolution API, allowing users to perform various operations on different resources. Specifically, for the resource Grupo and operation Atualizar Imagem Do Grupo, this node updates the profile picture of a specified group by setting a new image URL.

This operation is useful in scenarios where group images need to be programmatically updated, such as automating branding changes, refreshing group visuals based on events, or synchronizing group images across platforms.

Example use cases:

  • Automatically update a WhatsApp group image when a marketing campaign starts.
  • Change group pictures dynamically based on user activity or time of day.
  • Synchronize group images from an external CMS or digital asset manager.

Properties

Name Meaning
Nome Da Instância The name of the instance where the group image will be updated.
ID Do Grupo The unique identifier (JID) of the group whose image will be updated.
URL Da Imagem The URL of the image that will be set as the new group photo.

Output

The node outputs a JSON array containing the response from the Evolution API after attempting to update the group image. This typically includes confirmation of success or details about the updated group image.

If the API supports it, the output may include metadata about the group or the new image, but no binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

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

Troubleshooting

  • Operation not supported error: If you receive an error stating the operation is not supported, verify that the resource is set to "groups-api" and the operation to "update-group-picture".
  • Invalid or missing parameters: Ensure all required properties (Nome Da Instância, ID Do Grupo, URL Da Imagem) are provided and correctly formatted.
  • Authentication errors: Confirm that the API key credential is valid and has the necessary permissions.
  • Network or API errors: Check network connectivity and the status of the Evolution API service.
