Overview
The node "Evolution API" allows users to interact with the Evolution API service. Specifically, for the resource Mensagem and operation Enviar Status, it enables sending different types of status updates (text, image, video, or audio) from a specified instance to either all contacts or a selected list of contacts. This is useful for automating status updates in messaging platforms where you want to broadcast messages or media content as statuses.
Practical examples include:
- Posting a text status update announcing an event.
- Sharing an image or video as a status story.
- Sending audio clips as status updates.
- Targeting specific contacts or broadcasting to all contacts.

| Name | Meaning |

| Nome Da Instância | The name of the instance that will send the status. |
| Tipo Do Status | The type of status to post. Options: Status De Texto (text), Status De Imagem (image), Status De Video (video), Status De Audio (audio). |
| Conteudo Ou URL | The content or URL of the image/video/audio to be posted. Required for all types. |
| Texto Para Status De Imagem/Video | Text caption for image or video status posts. Optional. |

Output
The node outputs a JSON array containing the result of the status sending operation. Each item in the output corresponds to the response from the Evolution API after attempting to send the status. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally includes confirmation of success or failure per contact or overall.
If binary data were involved (e.g., uploading media), it would be handled accordingly, but based on the provided properties and code, the node primarily deals with URLs or text content rather than raw binary uploads.
Dependencies

Troubleshooting
- Operation Not Supported Error: If the node throws an error stating the operation is not supported, verify that the resource and operation names are correctly set to "messages-api" and "send-stories" respectively.
- Missing Required Fields: Ensure required fields like "Nome Da Instância" and "Conteudo Ou URL" are filled; missing these will cause errors.
- Invalid Contact List Format: When "Enviar Para Todos" is false, ensure the "Lista De Contatos" is a valid comma-separated string of contact identifiers.
- API Authentication Errors: Check that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
- Unsupported Media Types: Confirm that the media URLs provided are accessible and supported by the Evolution API.
